Social Events & Excursions

Social Programme
As an addition to the scientific programme, a social programme has been developed to give you the opportunity to explore the historical and natural beauties of Geneva, providing you with the perfect environment for open debate and network.

Welcome Reception
An informal Welcome Reception will take place after the Opening Lecture by Richard Laing (WHO) on Tuesday, 3 November 2009 at the Conference Centre (CICG).

Conference Dinner
Conference Dinner will take place on Thursday, 5 November 2009 at the Restaurant du Parc des Bastions, a magic place inside a historical botanical garden. The restaurant is close to the old town, the "Mur des Reformateurs" and the early buildings of the Geneva University, founded in 1559 by Calvin.
The Café des Bastions is very centrally located, at walking distance to several hotels and easily reachable by public transport.
Conference Dinner tickets can be booked and purchased through the Registration System.
Note that the places are limited.
