Membership Subsidy

The European Association of Dental Public Health
Membership Subsidy Scheme by the Borrow Foundation

The Borrow Foundation (“the Foundation”) is a UK Registered Charity, a non-profit organisation, dedicated to the improvement of oral health, particularly for children. The Foundation recognises the important role played by EADPH and the value of membership which includes subscription to the journal ‘Community Dental Health’ (published quarterly) and an entitlement to a reduced registration fee at the Association’s annual congress.

The Foundation is therefore  pleased to be supporting a scheme that will help further extend the benefit of membership amongst those working in dental public health in Europe.  The scheme will operate for the period 2010 – 2014 inclusive, and will provide free memberships (up to a maximum of 100) over this five year term, subject to annual review / confirmation (“the Grants”). The Grants will be awarded to those residing in the countries that fall within the categories of ‘low income’ and ‘middle income’ (including ‘lower middle’ and ‘upper middle’) economies according to the World Bank classification . Applicants will be engaged in dental public health and have a reasonable command of the English language.  Applications will require the endorsement (signature) of the principal of the applicant’s institute / organisation. As the Grants are limited in number, a maximum of 2 awards will be made to any one institute / organisation.

With regard to the application process:

1. A grant application form should be completed and submitted to the Foundation.
2. The application will be determined at the absolute discretion of the Foundation.
3. If the grant application is approved, the applicant will then be required to submit a standard membership application form to EADPH.
4. Subject to the applicant being accepted as a member of EADPH, the Foundation will pay the Grant directly to EADPH.

The deadline for this first ‘call for applications’ will be 30th April 2010 although applications received after this date will be considered until such time the maximum number of grants have been awarded.
