Fee Waiver Program for Inclusivity at RCHRI

Our goal is to make RCHRI inclusive and accessible to all. Towards this goal we are introducing a fee waiver program for 1st time participants at RCHRI from countries, institutions, or populations that may have difficulty attending our workshop (and the HRI main conference) due to special circumstances. This program would waive the registration fee for the HRI main conference and the RCHRI workshop.

Eligibility Criteria:

1. First time attendee to RCHRI, who may or may not have a paper accepted.

2. Attending university (BS, MS, PhD, Researcher, Postdoc) in countries listed in Band A or additional countries.

3. Have some special circumstances that restrict you from having the means to attend or afford the conference (e.g., do not have sufficient income, are retired, unemployed, permanently disabled, or other). Categories are taken from https://www.ieee.org/membership/special-circumstances.html but are not limited to these.

Fee waivers will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to budget availability. The deadline for application is March 06th.
