REGISTRATION

Registration is open from 2 January to 11 May 2020.

Member Organisations are represented by delegates and observers. Full and Associate Member Organisations are entitled to send no more than two voting delegates to the Conference (of which one will be designated the Head Delegate).  All Member Organisations are strongly encouraged to ensure that young women are included in their delegations.

Based on World Conference document 1a: 37th World Conference Rules of Procedure, each MO may also bring a maximum of 10 observers.

As approved at the 36th World Conference, the registration fee has been adapted so that countries in the lower quota bands pay less and the countries in the higher bands pay more, with a discount for young women aged under 30 in all bands.  The registration fee in 2020 ranges from USD 600 to USD 1,200 as below:

Delegates are required to pay in advance by 11 May 2020.

Your registration fee includes:

• Airport transfers to and from your accommodation from Entebbe International Airport, Uganda
• Conference bag
• Wi-Fi access in your hotel and throughout the conference venue
• Hire of all meeting rooms
• Attendance at all 37th World Conference sessions, including workshops and networking activities
• Lunches, refreshment breaks and dinners from Monday 13 July to Friday 17 July inclusive
• Opening and closing ceremonies
• Conference documents provided in the four official WAGGGS languages (Arabic, English, French and Spanish)
• Simultaneous interpretation will be available in all of the main sessions

Guests who are interested in attending individual parts of the programme (such as one day of conference or the opening / closing ceremony) should contact woco@wagggs.org to confirm availability and cost.

If you have any issues with your registration, please do get in touch and we would be happy to assist via woco@wagggs.org.
