The award is cover partial travel support to approximately 40 US participants to attend the "IPY 2012: From Knowledge to Action Conference," International Polar Year (IPY) conference to be held in April 2012 in Montreal, Canada. Drawing on results and best practices from the IPY 2007-2008 activities, the conference will bring together over 2,000 Arctic and Antarctic researchers, policy- and decision-makers, and interested parties from academia, industry, non-government, education, Arctic communities, and circumpolar indigenous peoples. In awarding the travel funds, preference will be given to applicants from under-represented groups, young scientists, and students; those presenting oral and/or posters at the conference; and those that are actively involved in research related to the program theme. Travel support will also be offered to a small number of educators who are actively engaged in presenting information on polar studies in their classrooms. In addition, selection for travel-grant awards will be based on disciplinary balance, geographical location, interest in polar-related activities, a balance of Antarctic and Arctic participation, financial need, and the ability to assume some of the travel costs.

该奖项将为约40名美国与会者提供部分差旅支持，以参加将于2012年4月在加拿大蒙特利尔举行的“2012国际极地年：从知识到行动会议”。根据国际极地年2007-2008年活动的成果和最佳做法，会议将汇集2 000多名北极和南极研究人员、政策制定者和决策者，以及来自学术界、工业界、非政府组织、教育界、北极社区和极地周围土著人民的有关各方。在授予旅行资金时，将优先考虑来自代表性不足的团体，年轻科学家和学生的申请人;那些在会议上发表口头和/或海报的人;以及那些积极参与与计划主题相关的研究的人。还将向少数积极参与在课堂上介绍极地研究信息的教育工作者提供旅行支助。此外，旅费补助金的选择将基于学科平衡、地理位置、对极地相关活动的兴趣、南极和北极参与的平衡、财务需求以及承担部分旅费的能力。
