    Conference fees

    This is a non-profit conference. For the fee structure of EMTC2025, it was important for the organising committee that fees are affordable for all attendees and that music therapists from low-income countries and students are encouraged to participate, especially in today’s harsh economic conditions in Europe. To achieve this, all presenters, the scientific committee, members of the organising committee and all volunteers are presenting and working in an honorary capacity without a salary.
