Our low-cost meetings are organised in partnership with a host institute who offers the venue and facilities. To make it affordable, especially for young scholars considering the emerging multi and transdisciplinary field, ISHMap Symposia offer the chance to present your research finding to an international academic audience, meet members, your colleagues from different countries. ISHMap symposia are free to all registered
