We recognize the importance of accessibility and aim to make our conference as inclusive as possible. Accessibility is a complex and ongoing effort, and as convenors, we strive to meet your access needs. At the same time, we recognize that structural barriers exist within academia and that situational challenges may arise during the conference. While we may not have addressed all aspects yet, we are committed to identifying and reducing barriers where we can.

If you have any access needs, suggestions, or concerns, please contact the Local Organizing Committee (as25.sociology@uni-mainz.de) for access-related concerns before and during the conference.

If you require childcare during the conference, please contact the Local Organizing Committee (as25.sociology@uni-mainz.de) to discuss your and your children’s individual needs and we will inform you of the options available.

Presenters from country categories B and C according to the Table of Economies by the ISA as well as early career researchers in special need (e.g. because they do not receive travel support from their institution) can apply for a travel grant (up to 1000 EUR). In order to be eligible for a travel grant, the applicant’s submission must be accepted for the conference.
The number of available travel grants is limited. The organizing committee will make a selection in recognition of need and of good scholarship.
If you would like to apply for a travel grant, please contact the Local Organizing Committee (as25.sociology@uni-mainz.de). Please include information on why you are requesting a travel grant and on your estimated travel expenses.
