Explanation of fee-structure. LiHE operates with an all-inclusive
symposium package, contrary to other conference organisers, who charge
you for individual activities. We believe that the LiHE-model is
fairer, because you know what you get, all is inclusive, so you are
not surprised with extra charges during the symposium. With the
LiHE-model you know exactly what your symposium budget is *before* you
go, so you can apply for funding. Compared to other conferences, we
also find that the LiHE-model is less expensive.
