Practical Information

The enrollment has been opened at this website (http://www.irticonference.org/bnbform.html). The digital enrollment will only be confirmed after the digital transfer of the conference fee (including housing and lodging).

Potchefstroom can be reached by plane to Johannesburg. From Johannesburg a shuttle will be arranged to Potchefstroom. Because of the relatively large distance (150 kilometers) the shuttle will leave the airport only two times. That could imply that you have to wait a few hours at the airport (like you had to do in Princeton, Bogor and Seoul). When you arrive earlier or later than Tuesday, July 5, you have to arrange your own transport by taxi.

The average temperature in Potchefstroom will be mild (15-20 C.) with rather cold nights. The accommodation will be excellent. It was the accommodation of the Spanish football team during the football world championships 2010. They survived the mild temperature and the cold nights in such a good condition that they even beat the Dutch in the final!

More detailed information about the travel facilities and the exact conference program will be placed at this website during the next months. Please watch first this site before you put your questions to Maarten Wisse, the conference manager, or to Eddy Van der Borght, the conference director. Later on, the e-mail address and telephone number(s) of a local contact person will be published on the website as well.
