2025 Wayne James World Explorer Grant Postponed Amidst Travel Insecurity

The 2025 Wayne James World Explorer Grant has been postponed indefinitely amidst the Trump administration’s international travel bans; border insecurity resulting from seemingly random or targeted detentions; student visa revocations and newly imposed restrictions; and I.C.E. (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) raids, all of which have converged to create a general apprehension towards travel to the United States. The application deadline for the 2025 Grant cycle was June 30, 2025.
