UNESCO’s IAG Organizing Committee is working very hard getting all of your visa applications through in a timely manner, you can imagine how much work that is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many avenues that some of you are taking in order to receive their support documentation, be it through the website, social media or direct email contact. However, requests for visa support should ONLY be made through your <\/strong>Focal Point<\/strong><\/a>. Individual requests can not be addressed on a \u2018one-on-one\u2019 basis by UNESCO. Please understand that the visa support unit in UNESCO is at a critical point where they are verifying requests for visas with the received registrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Focal points have the full support of both the IAG Secretariat and the UNESCO organizing team in providing this service to their participants so they will for sure be able to answer any questions you may have to get your support. Vice versa, as long as you communicate transparently with them, they will be able to effectively liaise with the visa unit so there is no second guessing whether any visa request is legitimate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, to summarize what to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Be sure about your participation;<\/li>
  2. Inform your Focal Point<\/a> about your intent to participate and ask him about your available options and visa requirements;<\/li>
  3. If you want to join, register with your focal point and inform him that you will need support with your visa;<\/li>
  4. Train hard, train everyday;<\/li>
  5. Bring home the gold!<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Best of luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
