We are happy to announce the start of our financial aid program for this
year’s EuroPython.
* EuroPython 2021 Financial Aid *
https://ep2021.europython.eu/registration/financial-aid/
As part of our commitment to the Python community and to increase our
reach to lower income countries, we will provide financial aid for
people in need to enable them to attend EuroPython 2021.
Financial Aid Sponsor for EuroPython 2021: The EuroPython Society (EPS)
is sponsoring EUR 10,000 worth of financial aid this year.
We offer financial aid in the following two ways:
- Discounted ticket. Get a standard conference ticket for the conference
with a very affordable price.
- Free ticket. For exceptional cases, we offer the standard conference
ticket for free.
Conference tickets include access to conference days (Wed-Fri),
sponsored workshops, Beginners’ Day workshop and sprints.
Please note: Access to our regular training sessions and workshops is
not included in the conference ticket.
Grant Eligibility
-----------------
EuroPython is a wonderful place to meet and share your experience with
Python developers from Europe and all around the world. Our goal is to
support people who want to help improve the Python community: conference speakers, active developers from smaller Python communities and open
source contributors.
Our grants are open to all people in need of financial aid. We take into account the following criteria during the selection process:
- Contributors: Potential speakers/trainers of EuroPython (those who
have submitted a proposal), volunteers and other contributors to
EuroPython and/or Python community projects.
- Economic factors: We want everybody to have a chance to join
EuroPython, regardless of economic situation or income level.
- Country based: As EuroPython 2021 will be run online and there may be
participants joining outside of Europe, we understand not all countries
have the same income levels and cost of living.
- Diversity: We aim to be the most diverse and inclusive event possible.
