GSSA Research Education and Investment (REI)

26 February 2021 REI Fund grant recipients have an opportunity to inform, not only the GSSA membership, but also the wider South African and international earth science audience, of their research results. The REI Fund was established during the 1980s and was originally known as the GSSA Trust Fund. The Fund annually invites applications from its members for financial assistance to support a variety of earth science research costs, including analytical and field work costs, conference attendance, and publication costs. Projects that promote and support earth science awareness such as geoheritage, geotourism and geo-education are also supported. Applications from post graduate student members are most welcome. Academic staff at South African universities often apply for grants, not only to support their own research interests, but also attract postgraduate students to enroll for higher degrees in such research projects by obtaining additional financial support from the REI Fund for these students. All applications are annually screened by the REI Fund Committee who consider the merit of each application and then make a final recommendation to the GSSA Council.
