Speaker proposals open for the 2018 International Fundraising Congress

The Resource Alliance is inviting applications from speakers to present at next year’s International Fundraising Congress in Holland. And that includes first-time speakers
The event is nearly a year away, from 16 – 19 October 2018, but its organisers are already searching for speakers who can share fundraising ideas, approaches, and challenges that could change the way delegates from around the world think and see things and do their work.
The annual event organisers encourage speakers to think of themselves as “part of a stellar team dedicated to supporting the global social impact sector by delivering the best conference in the world for those working to make it a better place.”
Speaker proposals are invited for the two different session formats.

Workshops

Workshops are 90-minute hands-on sessions delivered multiple times over the course of three days after the masterclass programme.
Returning speakers can submit a proposal, and so too can would-be first-time speakers.
Deadline for speaker proposals is 13 December 2017.

Masterclasses

Masterclasses are “long-form, deep-dive sessions focused on really unraveling the topic at hand, presented over 6.5 hours over two days at the start of the congress”.
To present a Masterclass you do have to have presented at IFC in the past. 
The deadline for Masterclass proposals is 28 November 2017.

Speakers are asked to include and reference this theme in their proposals for sessions.
Tracks or sub-themes will be:
