Sign up to be a Volunteer and help us make ICFP 2024 a unique experience for all attendants!
ICFP 2024 is pleased to offer a number of opportunities for volunteers, who are vital to the efficient operation and continued success of the conference each year. The volunteer program is a chance for people from around the world to participate in the conferences whilst assisting us in preparing and running the event.
The Volunteer Program helps more people attend the ICFP conference by covering conference fees, including access to the banquet (but not travel or lodging expenses) in exchange for a fixed number of work hours (usually from 12 to 15) helping with the conference organization.
