Welcome

Dear colleagues,



We are happy to meet you at the 10th Annual Second City Conference on Disability Studies in Education from May 28 – May 30.


Ghent is a very lively and sparkling city. Each year the town welcomes many visitors from all over the world.
 
Ghent University is not able to provide you with accommodation so we suggest you book a room in one of the city’s many hotels.
Since the centre of Ghent is very touristic, it is important to book your stay in advance.

To help you find decent accommodation, we have blocked rooms in different hotels through the city.
If you book before January 15th, we can guarantee you a room in following hotels.  You have to make your own reservation and contact the hotel yourself
