Description

Exchange Grants (formerly "Travel grants") are intended to subsidize the cost of travel required to support national and international knowledge mobilization within and/or beyond the research community. It is the expectation that applicants who receive a Exchange grant will apply for an external SSHRC grant (any program) within three years of the end of their Exchange grant.

Exchange grants are not available to reimburse travel expenses/claims which have occurred in the past. The proposed dates of travel for September 2018 competition will fall between October 1, 2018 and February 28, 2019.

Please see the SSHRC Institutional Grant webpage for deadlines and proposed dates of travel for all four SSHRC SIG Exchange competitions.
