Dear Hjalti Sigurðsson

 

Thank you for the invitation to the Nordic meeting!

 

We prefer the date 28th-29th of September. But all the other dates are possible for us, also.

We have had a new committee in Finland since January. We are seven members in the Committee now. I suppose we have to discuss further if we all are able to participate the Nordic meeting. Maybe some members would like to participate online, if possible. But if it is ok, we let you know later (as soon as possible) how many of us are going to participate.

With Best Regards,
on behalf of the Finnish Braille Committee

Aihe: [Nordicbraille] Nordic meeting 2023

 

Dear Nordic colleges.

 

The Icelandic and Finnish braille committees have been in contact and reached a consensus about hosting responsibilities for the Nordic meetings in 2023 and 2024.

The Nordic meeting 2023 will take place in Reykjavík and hosted by the Icelandic Institution of the Blind, which the braille committee belongs to.

Before proceeding further with planning the event we would like to ask for your opinion on possible dates for the Nordic meeting. We suggest the following three options:

28th-29th of September

5th-6th of October

25th-26th of October

The last suggestion would place the meeting on Wednesday to Thursday as we would then organise it parallel to Positive Looking Conf-Shop, a combination of a conference and workshop about the Positive Looking Visual Skills Programme. It is a joint endeavour between Iceland, UK and the US. Here is a link for those that might be interested; Iceland 2023 Positive Looking International Conf-Shop

We would kindly ask you to give us an answer on which dates you might prefer no later than 21st of April.

 

Best regards,

on behalf of the Icelandic Braille Committee,

Hjalti Sigurðsson
