The CESE Global Summit is 100% virtual again this year. While meeting in-person would be amazing, (and we hope to meet in-person again very soon!) we are thrilled at the scope of training, networking, and collaborating that this special conference will facilitate.
Our online summit proved to be a huge success in 2020 and 2021, and we are so excited about the opportunities it brings again this year in helping to build a more united global abolitionist movement!
What time does the conference start?
The CESE Summit will begin every day at 7:00AM EST (New York Time) each day.
Most events will be available to watch on-demand for 24 hours to all attendees.
What if I can’t attend during the days/times the conference is going on?
Free Access Passes will have 24-hours access to the sessions (not including networking and round table discussions). Sessions will be released each day at 7:00AM EST and will be available on demand for 24-hours.
All-Access Passes (paid) will receive lifetime access to all content. Even after September 13-17, you will have access to all Summit presentations on demand with no expiration date!
Will you have translation available?
With over 60+ countries participating in this conference, we apologize that English will be our only presentation language, and we cannot facilitate translation at this time. However, we still want our allies around the world to benefit from these amazing sessions. Machine translation technology may be an option to assist with your translation needs.
Here are some free resources we have found that may assist in translating the speakers and workshops of the conference. (Select videos may be offered with translated closed captioning depending on speaker preference.)
Open the video or workshop window in your browser; then open a new window to translate.google.com select original language (English) on the left side of the screen.
Then select the language of choice on the right side of the screen. Click on the microphone icon to turn on the voice input. The input will be transcribed on the left and translated on the right side of the screen.
Note: occasionally, you will have to clear the screen as it only has a 5000 character limit. There will be some delay and loss of content for a few seconds.
to an All-Access Pass (lifetime ticket) you will have access after the Summit ends to watch the presentations.
Films and organizational training will be available for the rest of the Summit after they first are released.
The content in the Whova app, including lists of allies for networking, the exhibit booths, or comments on the forums, will only be available to all attendees during the Summit.
