DeafBlind participants

We welcome DeafBlind participants and other participants who require personal interpreters.

Important Notes:

  • Participants are responsible for bringing their own interpreters.
  • Interpreters who stay on-site and eat meals at the workshop center will be charged a room and board fee.
  • This fee will be invoiced and can typically be submitted for reimbursement from your national interpreting agency.
  • Interpreter accommodation is not guaranteed unless:
    • The interpreter is registered at the same time as the participant.
    • The need for accommodation and meals is clearly indicated during registration.

We strongly recommend that DeafBlind and other participants requiring interpreters complete both their own and their interpreter’s registration as early as possible to secure space.

For questions about interpreter arrangements or accessibility needs, contact us at:
