Member institutions interested in hosting a conference in their region are invited to contact the ICDE Secretariat in order to give a brief presentation of the project. The ICDE Executive Committee makes the ultimate decision on where an International conference may be held:

The application should include:

• A covering letter explaining the motivation and applicability of the institution for hosting the event
• An official endorsement by the Head of the institution
• A description of the institution’s ability to provide quality of organization and planning, information and marketing, and programme content
• A description of the benefits of the proposed location
• A detailed description of conference venue and rooms
• A description of hotel options
• A breakdown of expected costs
