Dear Lactnetters,
I should like to draw your attention to a two-day conference on bf to be held in beautiful Innsbruck, Austria in October this year. With international speakers, it will provide in-depth information on current topics in the field of bf and lactation.
The congress is organised by the ILCA-affiliate VELB, which is the umbrella organisation of the LC associations of Germany, Switzerland, Austria and the Netherlands. Congress languages will be German and English. Simultaneous translation service will be provided. CERPs will be awarded for lectures.
Please find a program outline enclosed.
Innsbruck is an ancient but lively city beautifully located in the heart of the European Alps. Munich/Germany, Verona and Venice/Italy, Vienna and Salzburg are all comfortably accessible in a few hours. The organizers will be happy to assist you with accomodation and travel organisation. An optional postconvention program including guided tours to Vienna and Salzburg is available.
For further program information please contact VELB at www.velb.org
