Participation Categories

Who Should Register, and Why?

#Cultures 2027 has two participation pathways. Select the category corresponding to the way you intend to participate in the congress.

Participation Category

Author

Select Author if you intend to submit a work, appear as a co-author or present an approved contribution.

Every author and co-author linked to a submission must create an individual account, select the Author category and complete their own registration payment.

The system permits submission while payment is pending. However, the work will only be processed and forwarded to peer review after all linked authors and co-authors have completed payment.

Each paid Author registration covers authorship or co-authorship in up to two submitted works.

Participation Category

Attendee

Select Attendee if you wish to participate without submitting or co-authoring a work.

Attendee registration provides access to the online congress programme, including keynote sessions, plenary discussions, thematic sessions and other scheduled activities.

Attendees may receive a participation certificate according to the congress attendance and certification rules.

Attendee registration remains open until 5 April 2027.

Registration Process

How Registration Works

1. Create an Account

Enter your personal, academic and institutional information using an individual email address.

2. Select a Participation Category

Choose Author when submitting or co-authoring a work, or Attendee when participating without authorship.

3. Select the Appropriate Fee

Select the fee corresponding to your current academic or professional profile and the applicable registration period.

4. Check or Apply a Discount

The system may recognise an eligible email address or institutional domain automatically. If no discount appears, enter the appropriate CLAEC or Institutional Partner code. Research4Life discounts require prior email approval.

5. Pay Through PayPal

Verify the final amount, including any authorised discount, before completing payment through PayPal.

Important for Authors and Co-authors

Submission and Payment Are Separate Steps

The congress system permits an Author to create an account, select the participation category and submit a work while payment remains pending.

Submission does not mean that the work has entered the scientific evaluation process.

A submission will only be processed and sent to peer review after the registration payment of every author and co-author linked to the work has been confirmed.

Discounts and Eligibility

How to Apply a Discount

The system may recognise eligibility automatically through the registered email address or an authorised institutional domain. If the discount is not applied automatically, eligible CLAEC members and participants formally affiliated with an official Institutional Partner must enter the corresponding code in the discount-code field before proceeding to PayPal.

Confirm that the reduced amount is displayed before completing payment. Research4Life discounts follow a separate validation process and must be requested by email before payment.

Eligibility notice: entering a code constitutes a declaration that the participant meets the stated conditions. A code does not, by itself, establish eligibility.

40% Discount

CLAEC Members

Regular CLAEC members may receive a 40% discount on Author or Attendee registration fees.

CLAEC Discount Code CDE-0EFD9004-D9EA7201-9BCBEECE-51AFE843

Eligibility may be verified through CLAEC membership records, the registered email address or supporting documentation. Membership must be active when the registration is validated.

40% Discount

Official Institutional Partners

Faculty members, researchers, staff, students and other persons formally affiliated with an official Institutional Partner of #Cultures 2027 may receive a 40% discount on Author or Attendee registration fees.

Institutional Partner Discount Code CDE-79603F52-4B67B981-3389562E-FE15632D

The code applies only when the participant's institution has been formally approved and is identified as an official partner on the congress Home page and Institutional Partners page.

Eligibility may be verified through an institutional email address, confirmation by the partner institution or supporting documentation.

Research4Life Discounts

Participants affiliated with institutions located in countries classified in Research4Life Groups A and B may request the corresponding discount.

  • Group A: 40% discount.
  • Group B: 30% discount.

The request must be submitted before payment and include the participant's full name, registered email address, institution, country and evidence of institutional affiliation.

Discount policy: discounts are personal, non-transferable and not cumulative. When a participant qualifies for more than one discount, only the highest applicable discount will be granted. The General Coordination may verify eligibility before or after payment. If eligibility cannot be confirmed, it may withdraw the discount, require payment of the outstanding balance or cancel the registration.
Technical support: if an eligible code is not accepted or the reduced amount does not appear, do not complete payment. Contact conferences@scientia.international.
