How do I register a colleague?

If you are trying to register someone other than yourself for the meeting, you will first have to ensure the person has an IETM account. 

• If the person has an account,  you can log in to their account (If they forgot their login information they can recover it here);

• If the person does not have an account, you can create one for them here (make sure you are not logged in to your own IETM account). Please note that new accounts take up to three working days to be approved. 

After logging in to their account, you will be able to proceed with the registration procedure here.

What is not included in my registration fee?

For IETM members: Please make sure that your membership fee is settled before your arrival at the meeting.

Can I propose a topic for discussion?

Certainly! If you have an idea, proposal or suggestion, please get in touch with us via our Forum or through ietm@ietm.org. We will do our best to accommodate you. Please note that an IETM meeting takes months and often years to organise, and that it is not always possible to respond positively to last-minute requests.

Can I propose a performance for the artistic programme?

The artistic programme for an IETM meeting is designed to give an insight into the contemporary performing arts scene of the host country. It is not a festival, but rather an overview of the achievements, tendencies and concerns of the artists in the city, country or region hosting the meeting.

What external mobility funding opportunities are available to potentially support my attendance at the IETM Sofia Plenary Meeting 2024?
