Registrations Have Closed
FEANTSA is delighted to announce that registrations are open for our Policy Conference 2022: Towards a Vision for Ending Homelessness which will take place on the 2nd & 3rd of June in Dublin.
Our first all in person conference since the beginning of the pandemic, this year we have decided to shake up the format with a variety of different sessions including the usual workshops and seminars as well as "spotlight on" sessions and "conversations with...". Furthermore, site visits are back! And we have a full day of site visits planned with services across Dublin on Thursday 2nd. Site visits are open to all conference participants, as part of your registration you can select which site visit you want to attend but places are limited and are secured on a first come first served basis.
We look forward to seeing you soon in Dublin!
