Now is the time for your Yearly Meeting
to decide who should attend



Important notice for people with limited mobility

Due to the lack of accessible infrastructure at this venue, we regret that we are unable to meet the physical needs of delegates with severe mobility impairments. The accommodation, conference centre and other areas of the University are not wheelchair accessible. It is with utmost concern for the safety and comfort of people who depend on wheelchairs for mobility that we say we cannot meet your physical needs at this conference.

There are two ways you can apply to attend the World Conference


1.    As a delegate selected by your yearly meeting. A mailing has gone out to each yearly meeting (whether or not affiliated with FWCC) advising them of the number of delegates they are entitled to send. They have been asked to let the World Office know if they will use all these delegate spaces by the end of September 2010 and to provide the names of the delegates by December 2010. At that point in time, the World Office will send those delegates registration forms. Each yearly meeting determines how it will name its delegates. So contact your yearly meeting soon!

2.    Via an Open Place. There will be 300 spaces reserved for Open Place applicants, plus any spaces not used by yearly meetings. Applications are available from the World Office or you may fill in the online form.

Fees

Registration fees are tiered by country and each participant's fee is determined by their country of residence. These tiers reflect each country's gross domestic product factored by its personal purchasing power. All participants (or their nominating body) will be responsible for paying their registration fees. There are no bursaries or subsidies for registration fees as we have moved to a 'fair share' policy. This policy calls for each person to pay his/her fair share of the costs of attending the conference. Participants from the lowest tier will be permitted to pay their fees out of the proceeds of goods from their countries sold during the conference. The 2012 World Conference fee structure is as follows:
