Registration

We are only asking presenters to pay registration, not general attendees.  You can do
so online or on the first day of the conference.

We ask that:

  • presenters with institutional support pay $100;
  • presenters without institutional support pay $50,
  • and student presenters pay $25.

Registration covers conference costs that we were not able to completely cover through fundraising. 

While the conference is free for anyone to attend, we ask that you register in advance.


Parking

Unfortunately, we are unable to cover the cost of parking; however, there is very convenient parking near conference location. Visitor parking for each day can be purchased through the paybyphone app. Instructions are on signs at the lot. For more information, visit the SDSU Parking and Transportation site.

We recommend parking in Lots 3 or 4 (View maps: PK 3 and PK 4).

There is also a trolley stop on campus and ride sharing drop off locations.


This conference is co-organized by the Center for Human Rights and the Fred J. Hansen Peace Chair, with the generous support of The Peacemakers Fund at the San Diego Foundation, as well as the Bruce E. Porteus Professor of Political Science and the Center for Latin American Studies.
