Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research as
a Centre of Educational Excellence. We invite presidents/principals
and academic deans, as well as representatives of alumnae
associations, of accredited colleges and universities across
the globe that have as a primary mission the education and
advancement of women.
Program
We are planning to start the opening public
session – a presentation about the Universitary of Pavia
and college system and on the theme, Women and Politics
– on Thursday morning, 5th of June, 2008. We will conclude
with lunch (about 13:00) on Saturday, 7th of June, 2008. Meetings
will be held at Collegio Nuovo. Activities will be organized
for those arriving a day early (June 4).
Travel and Logistics
Collegio Nuovo, as the host institution,
will provide meals, transportation to and from Milan Airport,
and local transportation in Pavia.
All participants will be responsible for paying their own
airfare and lodging.
Rooms will be made available at local hotels
at an estimated rate of €150 (to be confirmed) per night
per room, and must be reserved through the MdE Congress
Service. Rooms at the following hotels must be reserved
by the 30th of April 2008:
Milan is approximately 45 minutes from Pavia,
for those who prefer to pursue their own accommodations there.
The MdE Congress Service Centre, to which the organizational
aspects of the meeting will be entrusted, can offer suggestions.
It is also likely that MdE could provide daily transportation
service for groups staying in Milan (in the morning from Milan
and in the evening back).
