GISscience 2023

Definition of Lower- and Middle-Income (LMIC) Countries

At GIScience23 we are able to subsidise the conference fees for authors who are currently based in universities in lower- and middle-income countries (except China, where academics are well supported). We are also hoping to offer additional support for accommodation costs for those authors.

Registration costs and links to book are on the registration page.
