Land & Water Australia is seeking applications for conference sponsorship for the 2007/08 financial year.

Land & Water Australia will be sponsoring up to 5 conferences with a maximum budget of $6,000 each. 
Applications close on the 27 April 2007.

We receive many requests for conference sponsorships and wish to
evaluate these opportunities systematically and equitably. In evaluating
event sponsorship opportunities we will consider: 

• the number and diversity of participants; 
• the quality of knowledge exchange activities proposed; 
• the quality of event organisation and information dissemination; 
• diversity between selected conferences; 
• the alignment of the subject matter with the Land & Water Australia
  R&D Strategic Plan 2005-2010. (pdf 2.01 mb)

It is our policy not to support a conference for more than 3 years consecutively.
Later & Water Australia has certain expectations when sponsoring conferences. For our sponsorship we require the following (if not covered in a conference sponsorship package): 

• Acknowledge Land & Water Australia by providing signage, or opportunities for signage, at the event; 
• Provide complementary display space in the event of an exhibition or trade show; 
• Provide verbal acknowledgement at the event, and in the conference proceedings, describing Land & Water Australia's support to the event; 
• Distribute Land & Water Australia literature and/or other natural resource management information to event participants via conference packages/satchel inserts; 
• Recognise Land & Water Australia in all media advertising by displaying the Land & Water Australia logo and acknowledging that event funding has been provided by Land & Water Australia.
