Applicants who need a visa to come to Italy should apply to Isodarco by Wednesday, October 10^th, 2018, indicate in their application to which Italian Consulate they intend to apply and apply for the visa immediately after being accepted to attend the School. Many Italian Consulates are reluctant to grant visas for a course that lasts only one week and therefore the applicants must provide the Italian Consular Authorities with evidence of their professional qualifications and their specific professional interest in the topic of the course and convince them that their only reason to come to Italy is to attend the Isodarco course. Isodarco, as a NGO, is not able to influence the decisions of the Italian Consular Authorities.
Applicants who do not need a visa should apply by Wednesday, November 7^th, 2018
Applications will be considered by the Organizing Committee on the basis of the information submitted.
All applicants will be informed of the Committee's decision as soon as possible and before November 14^th, 2018 (those who need a visa before October 17^th).
Participants are requested to arrive at Andalo any time on Sunday, January 6^th, 2019 and leave in the morning of Sunday, January 14^th, 2019. The course ends on Saturday afternoon.
The registration fee, which includes attendance, accommodation and full board, is 500.00 Euros. A reduced fee of 300.00 Euros is applied to students born in 1992 or after and to participants from Countries with foreign currency problems. If you wish to be considered for a reduced fee you must explain in your application why you qualify for it. Participants will be housed in double or triple rooms at Hotel Gruppo Brenta or nearby hotels or residences. The registration fee for single rooms, if requested and available, will be 800.00 Euros; participants asking to share a room with somebody in particular, if possible, will be charged an additional 50.00 Euros per person.
A limited number of family members can be accommodated at the Hotel Gruppo Brenta or nearby. Room and board for each person is 550.00 Euros for the entire period. Given the limited number of places for families, each request will be examined on an individual basis. Participants wishing to bring their family are requested to submit their application as soon as possible.
The school has no funds to help participants to meet travel and registration expenses.
The Course will be held at Hotel Gruppo Brenta, via Strigole 1, 38010 Andalo (Trento), Italy. Tel.(+39) 0461 585813, Fax (+39) 0461 585269. (http://www.gruppobrenta.it)
Participants wishing to submit a paper for seminar consideration should enclose a short abstract of their proposed contribution in their application. The Director of the School will reserve some limited time for seminars considered particularly relevant to the program of the Course.
The Organizing Committee reserves the right to introduce any necessary change to the program.
