Costs involved in PACE and funding options

Some PACE International in-country and online activities require a participation fee to cover the costs of facilitating your activity. Funding options are available to assist students.

Cost

Participation fees are dependent on the:

  • partner organisation
  • work requirements
  • location of your activity.

Funding

The PACE Team is working closely with its partners and PACE Unit Convenors to find innovative ways to continue developing mutually beneficial and safe PACE activities.

In 2021, PACE activities with organisations located overseas will continue to have an online engagement focus. This ensures that valuable and innovative collaborations can be ongoing in the context of COVID-19 and travel restrictions.

In line with this, PACE travel grants and PACE equity grants will not be available in 2021. However, students might be eligible to receive a New Colombo Plan Mobility Grant for certain online PACE activities with organisations based overseas. OS-HELP loans are aimed at assisting students while studying overseas although the awarding of these is likely to be impacted by travel restrictions.

Please see the New Colombo Plan website for more information about the virtual (online) delivery of activities and eligibility requirements.

See our grants page for more information on funding options.
