Following the success of the APAN61 Fellowship Program, which selected 20 fellows from 10 economies, we are pleased to announce that the APAN62 Fellowship Program is now open for applications.

The 62nd APAN Meeting will take place from 10th to 14th August 2026, in Auckland, New Zealand.

Fellowship Details and Eligibility: 

1. Full details on criteria and selection procedures are available at: https://apan.net/fellowship/
2. Applications are encouraged from graduate and undergraduate students, as well as young researchers.
3. Applicants presenting at APAN62 will receive priority consideration. Please note that presenting at APAN62 requires a separate submission under the Call for Presentation Proposals (to be issued later). Selection for fellowship does not guarantee acceptance as a presenter — both processes are managed independently.
4. There will also be a conference component to APAN62. If you are interested in submitting a paper, you may do so here: https://apanconf.apan.net/ (Closing: 15th April 2026)
