BURSARIES
ICDS is committed to internationality. As part of this, we aim to make the event financially accessible, especially to those on lower incomes, living in emerging economies or from countries where Dalcroze Eurhythmics only has an embryonic presence.
Several bursaries are available for 2025, for delegates unable to meet all the costs of the conference, or who come from countries where Dalcroze Eurhythmics / Rhythmic education does not have an established presence. An ICDS bursary will give:
-
Free entry to the conference (delegate fee is waived)
-
€300 towards your expenses (dependent on funds)
If you would like to apply for a bursary, please download the application form and email it, with a reference, to info@dalcroze-studies.com on a rolling basis.
The successful candidates for the first round of applications will be informed by 7 April 2025.
Since we are continuing to seek support for scholarship funds, we will accept late applications for the ICDS scholarships.
We will notify applicants of results on a rolling basis.
