Childcare and Nursing room

A childcare service and nursing room will be available at the conference venue. SIGIR 2017 also plans to offer partial financial support for the use of the childcare service. The financial support will cover up to 50% of the basic fee of the service during the official SIGIR 2017 program (including social programs). You need to pay the full cost for the rest of dates or time, and any additional charges. Please see below for the detail of the fee and charges of the childcare service.
