MCAA General Assembly & Annual Conference: Venice, 4-5 March 2016

The MCAA Board wishes to thank the other member groups and sponsors who put together a number of excellent alternative proposals; we hope that some of these exiting offers can be re-submitted for the 2017 MCAA General Assembly in due course.

Please make a note of the dates in your diary. You can also pre-register using the 'Register' button below; this lets other members know you are planning to be there..

PROGRAMME: The provisional agenda for the two days is available here. This may change between now and the event.

ELECTIONS: Members attending the GA will be invited to elect a new MCAA Board and Executive Committee for the next two years. Any suitably-qualified MCAA member who whould like to stand for election should complete the on-line candidate form.

POSTERS: The invitation for MCAA members to submit posters for the conference is now closed. Over 70 members have submitted posters, so we can look forward to seeing a wealth of examples of the work being done and to meeting the researchers involved.

VISAS:  To attend the GA, some members may need to obtain a visa to enter the EU. We advise you not to leave this until the last minute. If you need an official letter of invitation to the GA for your visa application, please send an e-mail request to [email protected] including the following six elements (the first five as they appear on your passport): 1) First names; 2) Surname(s) (family name(s); 3) Date of Birth; 4) Nationality; 5) Passport Number; and 6) your current organisation / employer. 

ACCOMMODATION: The approximate GPS coordinates of the Università Ca' Foscariare are 45.434501, 12.326040. There are many hotels and other accommodation options in Venice, but here are some conveniently-situated (and more affordable) examples:

Further details or updates on the programme, venue, and travel arrangements might published between now and the event - please watch this space.

Non-members: Non-members interested in obtaining an invitation to attend the 'conference' component of the event (the General Assembly is only accessible to MCAA members) are invited to send an e-mail stating their interest/reasons for wanting to attend.
