The International Seminar Support Scheme (ISSS) is an Australian Government small grants scheme administered by the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID). The scheme supports developing country participant attendance at international development-oriented seminars held both in Australia and overseas. The ISSS assists the Australian government’s objective of helping developing countries to reduce poverty and achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) through developing knowledge and technical expertise in these countries and building linkages between the government, academic and community sectors in Australia and our partner developing countries.
The ISSS is an ongoing annual program however applications should be lodged 3 months ahead of the seminar start date. For more information, visit AusAID’s ISSS webpage.
As of FY2014/15 the ISSS program no longer operates.
