18th ICES

Information on transportation from hotels in downtown Dire Dawa to the venue: As the venue of the Conference is on the campus of Dire Dawa University, on outskirts of the city, shuttles will drive participants from and to their hotels. There will be also an agreement with local transports companies (taxis and bajaj) for participants in case they miss the shuttles.
Partnership with Ethiopian Quadrants for reservation of accomodation and transport Ethiopian Quadrants PLC is an Addis Ababa based tour and travel company, and will be assisting the organizers of the 18th ICES in booking accommodation and arranging transport for participants, particularly international participants.
Many of you who have visited Ethiopia on several occasions in the past will need less assistance than others.
In the online questionnaire (on Registration page - 2d step) you can indicate what assistance you require.
You can also download the questionnaire (word document) , or write directly to the company: ethiopianquadrants@ethionet.et, ethiopianquadrants@gmail.com
