RIPE Fellowship
----------------

Having participants with diverse backgrounds, expertise, opinions and 
experiences enriches the RIPE community. With the RIPE Fellowship, we 
aim to create opportunities for individuals from underrepresented 
regions, minority backgrounds, or others who would otherwise be unable 
to attend without funding, to participate in the RIPE Meetings.

The RIPE Fellowship covers the cost of a meeting ticket, travel and 
accommodation for successful candidates in the RIPE NCC service region.

Apply: https://www.ripe.net/participate/forms/apply/ripe-87-fellowship/

*The application deadline is Tuesday, 11 September 2023.*

And finally, if you do not qualify for these grants, you can still 
propose a talk or a workshop at https://ripe87.ripe.net/cfp/

RIPE 87 will be a hybrid meeting, so both in-person and remote 
presentations are encouraged and will be accepted.

While I'm the coordinator for the RACI programme, Vesna is responsible 
for the Fellowship. If you have any questions (or suggestions) on either 
initiatives, feel free to reach out directly to us.

As we often mention, SEE region is still underrepresented within the 
RIPE community so please consider applying or spreading this message 
among your network to help us reach as many new people as possible.

Thank you!

Kind regards,
Jelena Cosic
