In order to ensure greater representation and greater input and exchange during the 3rd AFRICOM General Assembly and Conference, AFRICOM wishes to offer bursaries to cover travel and subsistence for approximately two museum professionals from each African country. UEMOA has pledged to cover bursaries for about 2 participants from each of its seven member States while UNESCO (Nairobi Office) will be sponsoring limited participants from Rwanda and Uganda. Members of AFRICOM and non-members alike are welcome to attend the Conference.

AFRICOM, is however, encouraging all potential participants to also seek their own funding from their host institution or elsewhere in order to complete efforts by AFRICOM

Applications for bursaries to attend the 3rd AFRICOM General Assembly and Conference must apply and strictly adhere to the requirements set out in the Criteria for the Award of Bursaries.
