PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT BEFORE JOINING US YOU HAVE CAREFULLY READ:

* If you are traveling to the Netherlands from a so-called red or orange zone, quarantaine regulations will be applicable. Travelling to the Netherlands from abroad (Dutch Governement Information). Please feel free to contact Rik Fernhout for advice.

* Update from Rik on the eve of 23 September on the Dutch Governement's Covid-19 guidelines: "Nothing changed for the region in the Netherlands where the DAI week will be. Several other regions turned ‘orange’ or will turn ‘orange’ in a few days, but this does not apply for the part of the country where the DAI week will be. We of course cannot be certain about what will happen next, but for now we still are ok. Please be aware that Radio Kootwijk, the main space where we will be hosted, is a state run space ( Staatsbosbeheer) – they will intervene in case things turn for the worse".

* Some components of our program will be live streamed (the link is to be published on the related pages) and ALL components will be filmed, so that students or tutors who cannot be present due to Covid-19 regulations can watch video documentation.

PLEASE RETURN TO THE BULLETIN ON A DAILY BASIS AS THE SCHEDULE MAY BE UPDATED WHILE COVID REGULATIONS MAY CHANGE.
