Update with news around the European Education Forum(EEF)

here comes the latest information about the European Education Forum which will take place simultaniously during the summit of the European education ministers from September 18-20 2003 in Berlin, Germany.

Opening plenary

The opening plenary starts on Thursday, September 18th at 10am. We will welcome you and give you a short introduction to the idea and development of the EEF. You will also be given a short overview of the topical European developments in education policy and some technical information concerning the timetable of the EEF and your accommodation.

Demonstration

The Demonstration will start in front of the main building of the Humboldt university, the exact adress is Unter den Liden 6, Berlin. We had to start 1 hour later with the demonstration so the final date is September 20 at 13.30 (1.30pm).

Legal team

If you have any problems with the police during the EEF, please call 030 6922222. Write it on your hand when you arrive in Berlin so you always have it with you. We don`t expect any problems with the police but it is better to prepare anyway.

All participants who have registered for accommodation until now are guaranteed a sleeping place!
