EMDC receives no funding from foundations or organizations.  Our volunteer team needs to cover expenses with our small registration fees, and we waive these fees for hundreds of attendees every year.  In many cases a 3-day conference is $300 or $400.  Our 4-day EMDC early rate is $80.  We also offer other reductions.

These Reduced Rates will apply:

Reduced rates are for EMDC registration (not for housing) can be one of the following:

Assistant Trainers Rate

For individuals coming as assisting trainers for the pre-EMDC or post-EMDC training (drop down as Assistant rate).

Special Rate

For trainers and individuals holding (only) a passport from Eurasian, Central Asian, South Asian, or non-Western countries (as defined by EMDC) and working with a non-profit/mission in the region.  When you register and put your passport country in, the software will give you the reduced rate if your country is on the above list.

Couple Rate

For the spouse of a registered attendee. This will be in the drop down option as couple rate.

Please write with details to info@emdc.info if you would like to use any of the above reduced rates for your registration.
