Purpose

Conference participants are invited to organise their own scientific events - such as workshops and round tables - within the framework of the EU conference. Rooms with capacities ranging from 60 to 180 seats will be at their disposal, and events will take place throughout the three days of the conference. These events will be announced in the final programme as well as on the conference web site. Participants willing to organise an event are invited to submit a proposal to the Commission using this form (PDF 13kB) or on-line. Preference will be given to proposals concerning topical and interesting issues relevant to both European research and European society at large. Proposed speakers should be good communicators and represent a variety of views and approaches in relation to a given subject. Involvement of young scientists as organisers and participants to these events is strongly encouraged.

Proposals must be submitted to the European Commission either using this form (PDF 13kB) or on-line not later than 30 June 2002.

The result of the Commission's selection will be announced in September 2002.
