The project provides funds for a block travel grant for U.S. sociologists to attend the XVth World Congress of the International Sociological Association in Brisbane, Australia, July 7-13, 2002. The major conference of the International Sociological Association, the World Congress occurs at four-year intervals and attracts approximately 5,000 participants. Support for travel of U.S. sociologists permits continued growth of international exchange and collaboration in sociology. An activity of this type is particularly timely given the necessity to promote international collaborations on challenges arising from global social processes and transformations, including those stemming from global interconnectedness, the new technolgies associated with the internet, and the growing hybridization of cultures. Evaluation of indiviudal requests for travel awards, selection of recipients, and the distriubtion of funds will be the responsibility of the American Sociological Association. Competitive criteria for an award include an iinvitation or acceptance of a paper, the scientific merit of the paper, and qualifications of the applicant. The selection process will seek to ensure a presence at the World Congress of junior scholars and sociologists underrepresented in international scholarly meetings.

该项目为美国社会学家出席2002年7月7日至13日在澳大利亚布里斯班举行的国际社会学协会第十五届世界大会提供整笔旅费赠款。 世界大会是国际社会学协会的主要会议，每四年举行一次，吸引了大约5 000名与会者。 对美国社会学家旅行的支持使社会学的国际交流和合作继续增长。 这类活动特别及时，因为有必要促进国际合作，应对全球社会进程和变革带来的挑战，包括全球互联性、与互联网相关的新技术以及文化日益融合带来的挑战。 美国社会学协会将负责评估个人旅行奖励申请、选择获奖者和分配资金。 奖项的竞争标准包括论文的邀请或接受，论文的科学价值以及申请人的资格。 甄选过程将力求确保在国际学术会议中代表不足的初级学者和社会学家出席世界大会。
