A provisional program is listed at the end of this document. Apart from several keynote addresses introducing key issues of fires in Europe and the working group topics the meeting will be attended by fire managers and decision makers outside of academia who will present their view on fire perception\, risk and scientific research\, and share with us the questions and needs policy makers and end users have. This will link the science and end-user community to find common language and create an interactive atmosphere. In addition\, it is important that all involved in this Action will get to know each other and each other’s work. For this purpose we would like to invite all participants (or groups of participants) to make a poster to present their work. In the program there will be ample time to look at each other’s posters and discuss possible linkages and set up collaboration. \nTo facilitate attendance of as many participants as possible within our limited budget\, we will reimburse a flat rate for the hotels of 60 euro per night. This should be sufficient for a 3* hotel in Sofia as there is excellent choice in this beautiful city. We recommend\, for example\, the Hotel Niky.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nReimbursement\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]To enable the attendance of as many people as possible we want to lower the flat rate for the hotels to 60 euro per night. \nWhat falls in the reimbursement? \n\nTravel on basis of receipts;\nHotel expenses with a flat rate for accommodation of 60 euro per night (with a maximum of 3 nights eligible for reimbursement);\nMeals: flat rate of 20 euro per meal that is not provided by the organisation.\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nPreliminary schedule and titles for the Meeting\n[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_tour][vc_tta_section title=”Tuesday\, October 8\, 2019″ tab_id=”1562497423697-09138465-05b2″][vc_column_text] \n8:15 Registration opens \n9:00.
