CABE Spaces' scholarship scheme send eight people to Canada, the USA, Japan, Scandinavia, Europe, and towns and cities across the UK to learn how a well-designed space can benefit the community it serves.

Next year they want to offer another six professionals working in the public realm the chance to travel to gain greater understanding of design and to experience good practice first hand.

Applications are invited in six areas: urban streets; highways and public squares; urban parks and green spaces; public space design for disabled people and those with other access issues; public space projects delivered by or working with local communities, and public spaces in social housing developments.

Scholarships will be made in the form of grants designed to cover travel and living expenses for a period of approximately six weeks. Applicants will propose their own study programme which they will then be able to develop with the help of a CABE Space mentor.

Applications can be made online by visiting http://www.cabe.org.uk/scholarships. The closing date is December 19th 2008 at 5pm.  Selected candidates will be called for interview in January and successful applicants will be notified by the end of February 2009.
