Who are we ?

The Belgian Federation of University Graduate Women was founded in 1922. Our
federation is a member of the IFUW (International Federation of University Women). Since then it has becme a federation composed of several sections (Bruxelles, Bruxelles-Schuman-Mons, Charleroi, Gent, Liège, Namur). The vocation of our federation is to allot post-graduate grants. Besides, it attempts to promote women's rights, quality of education, protection of mankind and peace, it takes part in several community, national and international organisations that work to create friendship links between university women of all countries and to defend their interests in the world. Our federation also organises conferences and round tables on various subjects.

Grants

A major activity of the Belgian Federation of University Graduate Women is to allot grants that allow young graduate federation members to pursue research projects abroad. Each of the existing grants has particular rules and specific allotting conditions. The application forms must be received by the Grant Commission before the end of April. Several grants exist. Information of application forms can be requested by mail from the president of the grant commission or by email.

Each year, upon proposal of the Grant Commission, the Belgian Federation allots a grant (the national grant) to an effective member (membership for at least two years), allowing a short research or study fellowship abroad (~ 1250 €). The Claire PREAU grant (funds managed by the Bruxelles section) is allotted in odd years, whereas the Marie DERSCHEID-DELCOURT grant or the OCCHINO-KERNKAMP grant (for a work in exact or biological sciences) are allotted alternatingly allotted in even years. To be eligible, the candidate must have been an effective member of our federation for two years. These grants are allotted for projects that are already in progress and are not renewable. To be eligible for the international grants (see IFUW), the candidate needs only to have been a member for one year.
