Conference Fee
The conference fee for HUMANE Members is €775 (for non-members the fee is €970 – see below). The fee includes the catering within the programme (coffee breaks, lunch on Thursday and Friday, the Wednesday networking event and the Thursday dinner). It does not include travel or accommodation.
Non HUMANE Members may attend if they meet the following criteria: they are from a higher education institution that delivers degree programmes in at least two of the three Bologna cycles (BA, MA, doctorate). Non-member applications are subject to review before acceptance. The Secretariat will apply the correct fee.
Accommodation
You are responsible for your own hotel reservation.
The hotels mentioned below are between 3 and 10 minutes away (walking distance) from the University of Helsinki.
We also always advise to check accommodation platforms such as booking.com for best deals based on your travel dates, although it is often also worth checking the aggregator’s rates with the hotel’s own rates before finalising your booking.
We advise to book early since June is a very busy time of the year and hotels get very full early on.
