Support Scheme for Scientific Meetings and Events (SSSME)

The National Science Foundation encourages the organization of international, regional and national level scientific meetings in Sri Lanka by offering financial assistance to the organizers of conferences, workshops, seminars and training progammes, with a view to enhancing effective communication of their ongoing research, research results and facilitate fruitful partnerships. Grants are awarded for meetings in the fields covered under the purview of the NSF. The applicant must be a Sri Lankan citizen registered with the STMIS database of the NSF. The outcome of seminar/workshop/conference should have a national or regional impact rather than restricting to an individual institute. The participants should represent several sectors and regions. “Applications for Scientific Meetings and Events scheduled during the year 2018 are no longer entertained. However, prospective applicants are invited to apply for events to be held in 2019.”
