Dear Colleagues,

Please forgive the cross-posting of this important announcement and feel
free to repost it to mailing lists that might reach potential applicants.

WorldCALL 2008, to be held in Fukuoka, Japan from August 5-8, 2008 announces
the availability of full scholarships to the congress, including
transportation, fees, lodging and a stipend for miscellaneous expenses. In
keeping with our policy of "Equity and Access" these scholarships are only
available to participants from countries that are not considered to be
"Higher Income Economies" by the World Bank. The scholarships are thus based
not only on merit but also on financial need. An accepted presentation is
not a requirement for a scholarship award.

We encourage all CALL scholars and practitioners, including graduate
students in qualifying countries, to apply. Further information and the
application form are available at: http://wc3scholar.info. The deadline for
the receipt of applications is December 31, 2007.

Further information about the conference itself and the paper submission
process can be found at:

Collegially,
  --Thomas Robb & John Mugane, Co-Chairs, WorldCALL Scholarship Committee
