About
The ONA25 focus areas are AI, climate, and resilience. They welcome projects on any topic, but if you are working on these themes, this might be a particularly good year for you to apply. The scholarship covers round-trip travel to ONA25, lodging at the Hyatt New Orleans for up to five nights, and a meal stipend during your travel.
