Ways to share information
There are many ways to share information about the foundation's sponsorship opportunities. They vary from country to country, field to field, and institute to institute. Those who have been sponsored by the foundation are familiar with the circumstances of their respective region and discipline. They can best judge which methods would be most effective for sharing information. The following are some possible scenarios:
- Informal Conversations
Speak to students or colleagues in your home country and make them aware of the opportunities offered by the Humboldt Foundation. - Academic Conferences
When you attend an academic conference, mention the Humboldt Foundation to your colleagues there. Display informational materials or posters from the Humboldt Foundation. Mention your own Humboldt experience at the conclusion of your lecture at the conference. Or offer to give a presentation on the foundation's programmes (Download at the top of this page). - Visits to Universities or Other Research Institutions
When you visit other universities or research institutions, mention the Humboldt Foundation in various contexts (see "academic conferences" above). - Your Own Institution
Hang the Humboldt Foundation's poster in your office or institution, display informational materials, or give a presentation about the sponsorship opportunities. - Your Website
Make a link on your institution's or university's web site to the home page of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. Also, make a link from your personal homepage.
