Conference Participation Support

CHI 2000 will offer a limited number of scholarships to CHI 2000 authors with demonstrated financial need in order to enable them to present their work at the conference. Priority will be given to those authors from economically-disadvantaged countries. Scholarships will be offered to presenters of accepted presentations only, not to attendees who are not presenting.

We hope this will encourage submissions from under-represented segments of the HCI community.

Application forms for Tutorials and those categories with deadlines of 13 September 1999 must be received by 4 October 1999. Please note that Tutorial Instructors receive compensation for presenting. Applications for categories due on 13 December 1999 must be received by 13 December.

To apply, fill out the CHI 2000 Scholarship Application Form. Completed forms should be submitted to the following address:

Thea Turner
1301 E. Algonquin Rd.
Room 2240
Schaumburg, IL 60196
USA

You may fax your application to +1 847.576.3240, provided you send email notification first to turner@rsch.comm.mot.com. Your subject line should be "CHI 2000/Scholarship Application, (name)" with your name in place of "(name)."

Please contact the appropriate Regional Liaisons or one of the General Co-Chairs if you have any questions.
