LodgingThe conference will take place at the IGESA centre, which has a conference room equipped with a video-projector and a slide projector. The number of people will be limited to 60, due to the small size of the centre. Participants will be sleeping in the rooms of the IGESA centre, which have double beds and a small desk. Registration fees include full-board lodging for 5 nights. Due to a limited number of rooms, participants will probably have to share the rooms.
