NOTE: Due to COVID, Travel Awards were announced in 2019 then ceased from 2020 to 2022 due to the Global Pandemic. Since then, because of growing concerns about travel impact, AFS has decided not to continue with travel awards but to focus on hybrid/virtual attendance for both presenters and attendees of the annual conference.
