PLEASE, DO NOT APPLY UNTIL YOUR REGISTRATION HAS BEEN APPROVED.
Funding is available from the voluntary contributions made by donors to support the participation of a maximum of TWO (2) delegates from developing countries and countries with economies in transition, with priority to Least Developed Countries and Small Island Developing States.
To enable the INC Secretariat to facilitate travel arrangements and provide financial support, please submit here the request for travel support by completing the required information and uploading the necessary documents.
Delegates nominated to receive travel support are required to upload the UN event pass (received after registration was approved) and the Note Verbale/Letter from the national authorities nominating the two delegates proposed to receive travel support, in order of priority.
Each delegate needs to submit their individual travel support request.
The deadline for application for travel support has been exceptionally extended until 7 August 2026, 23:59 East Africa Time. For the necessary travel arrangements to comply with the United Nations rules and regulations, nominations for funding support after the deadline cannot be guaranteed.
The funding will cover economy-class round-trip air tickets, as well as daily subsistence allowances and terminal expenses in accordance with the United Nations rules and regulations. Note that the Secretariat is not in a position to accommodate last minute changes or cancellations after a ticket has been issued as this results in financial loss.
Note: Please note that the travel dates and daily subsistence allowance (DSA) apply exclusively to the second informal in-person HODs meeting and do not cover the meeting dates of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Panel (ISP-CPW), which will be held back-to-back with the informal in-person Heads of Delegation meeting. Registration for, and any application to participate in, the ISP-CPW meeting is a separate process. Delegates wishing to participate in the ISP-CPW meeting should contact the ISP-CPW Secretariat directly for information on registration and participation requirements.
