To be eligible for an award, authors have to present their work in poster format. At the time of submitting the abstract, they must request that their work is valued to be eligible for an award. The organizing committee appoints each year a jury composed of three prestigious professionals in child clinical psychology. The jury will evaluate the scientific quality and contribution of the posters presented at each poster session, and will select the 10 finalists. The finalists will present their work in a 10-minute oral presentation to the jury. In the closing ceremony of the congress, a certificate and a $300 voucher will be delivered to each of the three awarded, and a certificate to the remaining seven finalists.

No. The registration of the congress is not transferable to someone else. However, in case, we would appreciate if you cancel your registration to facilitate that your place can be occupied by someone else. You can find more information of cancellation policies here.

The awards will be delivered in the closing ceremony of the congress on 18 November 2017. It is needed at least one author of the poster to pick up the certificate and the voucher.

Seville is a safe city and comparable to many other European cities. Despite this, it is recommended to take preventive measures such as taking care of their personal belongings in crowded places (as in the subway and other public transport).

Autumn is one of the best seasons to visit Seville. In November the weather is a bit cooler and temperature is moderate (20-25 degrees Celsius). In autumn it is common to find stalls of delicious warm roasted chestnut in the most commercial streets of the city.

Seville airport provides public transport services (taxis and buses) or private services (by car or car rental) to the visitors. More information: http://www.gowithoh.com/guide-seville/airport-transport/
