Caregiver Award

We are pleased to announce the launch of a new initiative for CCN 2025 to help offset costs of childcare at the annual meeting. These funds will make it easier for members with children to attend a wider range of meeting events.

Value: Up to $500 per family. In the event that the number of requests exceeds the funding available, preference will be given to applicants in the early stages of their careers.

Number: 6 awards.

Use of Funds

Recipients can use funds to support childcare in the form that best serves the family. Due to logistical constraints, CCN will not be offering an in-house childcare program. Recipients will be responsible for organizing their own childcare solutions.

Eligible expenses for the budget can include:

• Third party dependent care services for the duration of the conference
• Travel costs for the designated caregiver
• Per diem of up to $50/day for the designated caregiver

Recommended Childcare Services

The Local Organizing Committee recommends 24nannies, a Netherlands-based but globally oriented childcare service, for parents looking to hire babysitters or nannies during CCN in Amsterdam.

How to Apply

The application form can be found here. The deadline for applications is June 1st, 2025. Awardees will be notified by email by June 15th.
