Please note that the maximum amount that may be requested is $2,000. This award cannot be used for salary, nor for major equipment purchases. It can be used for any research- related expenses or supplies, including cost of books, xerox or microfilm copies, film, miscellaneous stationary items, and travel costs. Per diem costs are allowable only for days away from home while traveling inside Yemen for the purpose of the proposed research. Your budget proposal should include all applicable information. If unusual costs are involved, discuss the necessity briefly in a note at the bottom of this page; you may add additional pages if necessary. A realistic project budget is one of the criteria used by the AIYS fellowship in evaluating the applications and recommending them for funding. AIYS will take all budget information into account in determining the level of funding awarded to successful applicants. Please note that successful AIYS fellows are required to notify AIYS of funds received from other sources for the same project; AIYS reserves the right to modify awards when other funds have been received, but the receipt of other funds does not necessarily result in an automatic adjustment of an AIYS award.
