IALA distributes awards to members of IALA who are in the position of an early academic career and who provide a significant contribution to promoting collaboration in the interdisciplinary arena within Landscape Archaeology. For more information on the Travel Award, check the paragraph below.
In the future, when IALA is growing, we expect to offer also awards for article processing charges for papers that present highly qualified interdisciplinary research related to Landscape Archaeology.
Dissertation Award
One of the aims of IALA is to support young landscape archaeology researchers and to foster the collaboration between our members and within the discipline. In order to achieve this, we want to draw your attention to the IALA dissertation price (€600). If you have a student or project colleague who should be known throughout our community and who has just finished (within the last year) their PhD on a landscape archaeological topic.
Please send your nomination to the IALA email address:
