Tickets for the Othering & Belonging 2024 Conference attendee registration have SOLD OUT.
However, you can still register for our free live stream here.
The registration levels were developed to make the conference as accessible as possible to a wide range of attendees. OBI does significant fundraising to provide different fee levels as well as full scholarships.
Please select the highest level that your organization or you are able to afford. In this way, we are able to stretch our conference funding further and provide additional high quality content and more scholarships to those who would otherwise not be able to attend.
Belonging Champion: $2,425*
You are an organization or individual who wants to spread Belonging to as many people as possible by supporting those who are not able to afford the full conference registration fee. This registration level will support yourself and two scholarship applicants to attend the Conference. Please note that you are not able to specify which scholarship applicants you would like to support; if you would like to register multiple specific people (a group), please choose the Architect of Belonging rate.
Pay It Forward Foundations and Businesses: $1225*
You work for a foundation or business that has a budget for conferences or are an individual with the means to cover the actual per person cost of the conference plus supporting one other attendee at the subsidized Co-Creator rate. Please note that you are not able to specify which other attendee you would like to support; if you would like to register multiple specific people (a group), please choose the Architect of Belonging or Co-Creator rate based on your budget.
Architect of Belonging: $825*
You work for a medium to large non-profit, government, or educational institution, and your organization is paying for the cost of your registration. By registering at this level, you are paying the actual per person cost to attend the conference.
Co-Creator: $425*
This subsidized registration level is for those who cannot afford the actual per person cost of the conference. This rate may be appropriate for UC staff and faculty, employees from organizations/ institutions that do not have sufficient conference or professional development budgets, or individuals who are covering the registration cost out of their own funds and who cannot afford the Architect of Belonging rate.
Bridge Builder: $195* (Limited availability)
This highly subsidized registration option is for individuals who are unable to pay the Co-Creator rate such as staff of nonprofits with very small budgets and underemployed/low-paid individuals who are covering the cost out of their own funds. Please only select this level if you do not have the capacity to pay the Co-Creator rate.
*There will be a 3.5% credit card processing fee charged on top of all registration fees listed above.
**If you registered you should receive a confirmation email within a few minutes of completing registration and payment. If you did not, be sure to check your spam or junk folder of the email you registered under.
Group Registration
If you are registering/paying for a group, you must register yourself first (or choose one group member to serve as the primary registrant) and then you will be prompted to add additional members to the registration prior to payment. If members of your group are paying individually (for example, with different credit cards), each member must register separately.
Group Registration Rate/Discount
If you work for a medium to large non-profit, government, or educational institution, and your organization is paying for the cost of your registration, register your group under the Architect of Belonging rate; the $825 rate is per group member. For groups that cannot afford the Architect of Belonging rate, register under the Co-Creator rate; again, the $425 rate is per group member. These are the discounted group rate options.
