We understand that practices vary across professions and organizations, and we appreciate the opportunity to explain our approach. Presenting at the VFIL World Congress ofĀ Logotherapy offers meaningful professional benefits, including recognition on an international program, contribution to the scholarly record of the congress, fulfillment of academic presentation requirements, and the opportunity to share your work, including publications and resources, with a global audience.

Extending complimentary registration across the presenter pool would significantly impact our ability to sustain the event.
