What is Funded Registration?
Every even year, Region 8 allocates budget to fund a limited number of participants to attend the Region 8 Student and Young Professionals Congress. With that funding, the Region is looking to:
Enforce a diverse audience:
− Diversity of Sections represented;
− Diversity of representation within a Section (multiple Student Branches / Young Professionals Affinity Groups);
Balance of Students versus Young Professionals;
Fund those who could not afford to attend otherwise;
Fund those that are exemplary volunteers (as a recognition/reward of their work);
Fund those that plan on continuing to be volunteers in the near future, so they have the time to pass the message and train their fellow volunteers back home after attending the Congress.
