Conference format & key facts
Organized detailsOverview
Midlands State University is registering delegates for its hybrid 2026 ASM Symposium on sustainable artisanal and small-scale mining, scheduled for 23–25 September 2026 in Gweru and online.
Complete conference details
The symposium brings together policymakers, academics, researchers, mining practitioners, development partners, private-sector actors, civil society and community representatives. Registration categories currently include local non-presenting students at USD 50, local presenters at USD 75, regional non-presenting participants at USD 150 and regional presenters at USD 150. Fees exclude accommodation and transport. The full-paper deadline of 15 September applies to presenters, not to general attendee registration, so no general registration deadline is assigned here.
Eligibility requirements
Open registration includes local students, local student or professional presenters, regional SADC non-presenting participants, and regional SADC student or professional presenters, according to the official registration categories.
Tips for this conference
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Confirm whether you are registering as an attendee, speaker, poster presenter, exhibitor or scholarship/travel-grant applicant because deadlines can differ.
- For abstracts or papers, follow the exact theme, template, word limit, author format and publication rules from the official call.
- If travel is required, check invitation-letter timing, visa processing, accommodation and travel-support deadlines early.
- Review the agenda and speakers in advance and plan the sessions and people most relevant to your goals.
Verification notes
Verified on the current Midlands State University symposium and guest-registration pages. General registration is active. Tiered fees are preserved in details rather than forcing one fee. The 15 September full-paper deadline is presenter-specific and is not used as the general registration deadline.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
