<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:11.0px'>The IAMPP funding made available through ICOM Australia assists Australian, ICOM member, not-for-profit cultural organisations with providing museums-skilled people to work on formally partnered object and materials heritage projects in Asia-Pacific regions.<BR>
<BR>
'Asia-Pacific regions' coincides with the member countries of ASPAC, ICOM’s Asia and Pacific Regional Alliance (until recently 'Regional Organisation'). The scheme directs its attention towards the more resources-impeded nations of the Alliance. At the same time, the project partner’s nation needs to be in good standing with the Australian government.<BR>
<BR>
Funding for these projects is possible through the generous contribution of the National Museum of Australia and through AusAID.<BR>
<BR>
The program is an initiative of ICOM Australia.<BR>
<BR>
This call for submissions, the third for 2007, is for projects scheduled into the financial year 2007-08 that aim at accessing IAMPP funding resources other than AusAID.<BR>
<BR>
Conditions apply. We ask that intending applicants refer to the most recent guides and use the latest application proformas – some significant changes have been made.<BR>
