Question 1

Do I have to be a member of SSSUK to come to the symposium?

Accepted Answer

No. Everyone is welcome. The Annual General Meeting (during lunch) is also open to everyone, but only members may vote.

Question 2

If I decide to join the Society on the day or via sssuk.org how much is the annual subscription?

Accepted Answer

Payment by Paypal and standing order: £18 (UK);  €28 / £25 (Europe); US$30 / £25 (elsewhere). Cheque or cash: £20; €31 / £28; US$34 / £28. Students (with ID): £12; €18 / £16; US$20 / £16. Institutions: £28; €35 / £32; US$40 / £32. Price variance by region is due to the journal's postage costs.

Question 3

Can I just turn up on the day and buy a ticket?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but we would prefer you registered in advance as this helps us plan the lunch numbers. We cannot guarantee a seat or lunch for those who register on the day.

Question 4

Will the event be recorded?

Accepted Answer

We have usually filmed the panellists, (but not the audience), unless the Chatham House Rule is in operation as it will be for the first panel this year. Recordings of past symposia may be found on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@sssuk2454.

Question 5

Will the speakers make their contributions in English or in Arabic?

Accepted Answer

In English.

Question 6

What is the Chatham House Rule?

Accepted Answer

"When a meeting, or part thereof, is held under the Chatham House Rule, participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that of any other participant, may be revealed."
