The Society for Ecological Restoration’s SER2025 Open Doors Awards Program offers applicants need-based travel support and a conference registration waiver. The program is intended to help minimize the cost barrier and increase accessibility to SER World Conferences. The Open Doors Awards, though limited in number, help SER expand inclusivity and participation across diverse geographies, cultures, and areas of expertise.
The deadline to submit applications for the Open Doors Awards program is 14 February 2025. The timeline is designed to ensure notifications of award acceptance and rejections happen in time to make travel arrangements or alternate plans.
Current SER members who have submitted an abstract for SER2025 are eligible and welcome to apply. To ensure eligibility, be ready to provide:
