The International Society on General Relativity and Gravitation promotes the study of general relativity and gravitation and enables the exchange information within this field for example via organizing the triennial GR conference series. This award supports the organization of the next GR Meeting (GR21) to be held in New York City during the summer of 2016. The GR conference series is the principal international meeting for scientists working in all the areas of relativity and gravitation. Reinforcing existing connections and giving opportunity to the exchange of new ideas and form new connections between GR theorists, experimentalists, data analysts, mathematical and numerical relativists and astrophysicists.GR21 will have sessions covering topics such as Mathematical and Numerical Relativity, Relativistic Astrophysics, Quantum Gravity and String Theory, Gravitational Wave Science and Cosmology. The award will support the participation of graduate students. Temporary child care costs that directly result from travel to the conference will also be considered for support.

国际广义相对论和引力学会促进广义相对论和引力的研究，并通过组织三年一次的GR系列会议等方式促进该领域的信息交流。该奖项支持将于2016年夏季在纽约市举办的下一届GR会议（GR21）的组织工作。GR会议系列是在相对论和引力的所有领域工作的科学家的主要国际会议。加强现有的联系，并提供机会，以交流新的想法，并形成GR理论家，实验学家，数据分析师，数学和数值相对论和天体物理学家之间的新的连接。GR21将有会议涵盖的主题，如数学和数值相对论，相对论天体物理学，量子引力和弦理论，引力波科学和宇宙学。该奖项将支持研究生的参与。 还将考虑支助因出席会议而直接产生的临时儿童保育费用。
