Venue

Since 1991 Berlin has been the undivided capital of Germany. For many years Berlin, and especially the Brandenburg Gate, was a symbol of the partition of Germany and of the hope that the country would one day be reunited in peace and freedom. It is presently developing into a metropolis of science and culture, media and business. It is a city that never sleeps.

Potsdam , the gateway to Berlin, with its unique situation on an island, its three hundred year old castles and parks offers a wide variety of cultural highlights, in particular the world famous Palace of Sanssouci, situated at its heart. This former residence of the Kings of Prussia is complemented by the historical Weavers Quarter, Dutch Quarter and a Russian Colony. The historical place of the Potsdam Conference, Cecilienhof, where Truman, Churchill and Stalin decided on the fate of Europe after World War II, is just a walk away from the symposium venue.

The meeting will take place at the Dorint Hotel Sanssouci , Potsdam, which offers excellent conference facilities. The hotel is only a few minutes away from shopping areas in Potsdam and half an hour away from the centre of Berlin. Special room rates will be available for participants.
