Conference Equity Policy
C2UExpo 2017 is committed to achieving and maintaining a diverse conference makeup, and to initiating special measures as required to ensure full participation of delegates and presenters from groups that have traditionally been underrepresented, to enable them to access the conference on an equal basis. The groups designated for measurement of conference equity include, but are not limited to, women, Aboriginal peoples, persons with disabilities, racialized or visible minorities, and persons identifying as part of the LGBTQ community.
How will the bursary be distributed?
Bursaries will be awarded in the form of direct payment to C2UExpo 2017 for registration fees. In order to cover travel costs, recipients must pay for all travel expenses up front, and then submit original receipts, boarding passes, etc. for reimbursement.
