The Centre for Disability Law & Policy (CDLP) is pleased to announce the offer of a limited number of scholarships to attend the 16th International Disability Law Summer School. Summer school will take place in Galway, Ireland from the 16th – 18th June 2025.

The scholarship will cover travel, accommodation, registration fee, subsistence and local and national public travel as well as reimbursement of visa fee expenses. The CDLP will arrange travel and accommodation for successful applicants and their PAs (if required). The subsistence and visa expenses will be paid into successful applicant’s bank accounts after the event.

 This year’s theme is Disabled Activism in an Age of Far RightResurgence and we are particularly interested to support disabled people to attend summer school. However, this is not an entry requirement of the scholarship and everyone can apply.

Please note if you need to travel with a Personal Assistant, you should let us know when submitting your entry.
