Although some countries have started lifting restrictions, serveral have not, and some cities that started to ease restrictions have delayed futher phased re-openings. Policies on travel vary by country and each institution.

The health and safety of our members, attendees, and other stakeholders have always been out primary concern. Give the levels of uncertainty, and with input form our regional councils, the BAFT Board Directors has approved the recommendation to pivot all planned BAFT in-person events through January 2021 to virtual events.

Through digital channel delivery, we hotp that individuals that may have previously been restricted by travel cost will be able to participate in these BAFT programs. We will provide additional updates on each event as our virtual offerings develop.

For those who already registered for the in-person event, there is no action required from you. We will fully refund your registration and cancel your hotel room reservations at our event locations. However, if you reserved a room outside of our official hotels, you will need to cancel your bookking. We appreciate your patience as we work through all the refunds and room cancellations during the next couple of weeks.
