Hello friends,

I'm writing to let you know that today we're opening registration for the 2019 Creative Commons Global Summit, and to invite you to consider applying for a scholarship.

The Creative Commons Global Summit will take place in Lisbon, Portugal, 9-11 May 2019. Join us for three days of dynamic programming at Museu do Oriente, with keynotes held at the historic Cineteatro Capitolio.

Nearly 25% of all Global Summit attendees receive support from Creative Commons in the form of scholarships. Our scholarship program helps ensure the global community remains central in the debates, collaborations, connections, and strategies for action that make the Global Summit such an exciting and important event.

Scholarship applications are now open. The application deadline is December 10, 2018.

As always, the summit's programming is built out of ideas from you. If you have an idea for a summit session, please submit a proposal. We're accepting proposals through December 10, 2018.

Finally, please be sure to read the event's Code of Conduct. All attendees, speakers, sponsors, and volunteers at our conference are expected to cooperate to help ensure a safe environment for everyone.

Thank you for all that you do. We're excited to see you in Lisbon in May.

Claudio
