Dear Marjo,
Thank you so much for the information about the start and end time of the
meeting, and for the description of how to get from the hotel to the Iris
Centre. We will arrive in the evening of the 8th and find a suitable flight
in the evening of the 10th.
We look forward to seeing you in Helsinki!
Best regards,
Nina Tveter
Chair of the Norwegian Braille Authority

Dear Marjo
At least for us, that would work just fine, as we have a flight to catch at
17:00 being at the airport around 15:00 is what we are aiming for. Thus, a
2:15 /30 finnish is perfect.
And good to know that we can take metro from the hotel to within walking
distance to Iris.
BR. Jesper.

Hello Jesper and all!
Thank you all for your messages and information and I am sorry for the delay
to keep you updated!
The meeting will take place at IIRIS centre. We were looking for all the
possibilities, and decided to keep the dinner at Klaus K. There is a short
walk from the hotel to Central Railway Station where you can take metro
straight to the Itäkeskus. From there you have a short walk to IIRIS. If
needed, we can arrange transportation from the hotel to IIRIS, and there
will also be some from the Finnish committee to accommodate at Klaus K who
can guide you. Unfortunately there are not so many hotels at a reasonable
distance. I am sorry for the inconvenience!
I hope I can send you the draft program soon. Is it OK if we start on the
9th October at 10 am and end the meeting on 10th October around 2.15-2.30
pm.
Best regards,
Marjo

Dear All.
Here is what we probably will settle on:
1. Arrival in Helsinki from 15.30 19.30, so that we can start as
early as possible.
2.
Daparture on the 10th at 17:00 from Helsinki Airport.
Accommodation:
At least the part of the contingent from DaB, will stay at Klaus K, unless
Hotel Rantapuisto which is closer to the IRIS center, where the meeting
Venue is still held, becomes available?
When do you plan to sent out further information.
As we have not received any further indication as for start and finishing
time, we hope that the above does not cause changes to the program.
We look forward to receiving the program and other materials as soon as
possible.
Best regards, Jesper.

Aihe: Agenda ideas for our next Nordic Braille meeting 9-10th October. in
Finland
Dear all.
The time
For our next Nordic meeting is rapidly approaching.
We have the following items which we would like to suggest.
1. Hopefully last years working group regarding Braille and STEM
education will have some points to share during the meeting, as they have
planned a workshop before the Nordic meeting commences.
2. As you may remember Danish Braille code has undergone a large
revision, and as a consequence we have at the various organisations that
provide Braille Literacy courses, revised our instruction materials. We
would like to share some of the various thoughts and ideas that have been
put into this work, in regards to teaching of Braille for Adults.
3. We would further like to have a discussion regarding how to conduct
remote teaching of Braille.
As part of our planning of the visit to Finland, we would like, as soon as
at all possible to know the start time of our meeting on the 9th. Also we
plan to leave on the 10th in the late afternoon.
We most likely will arrive on the 8th of October in the late afternoon or
early evening conditional to flight schedule and availability.
Best regards, Jesper.
