Rotterdam, 15-16 May 2008
On behalf of Erasmus University Rotterdam (EUR), I would like to warmly welcome you to the Nectar Cluster 2
Workshop in Rotterdam. The Department of Public Administration of the EUR is honoured to be hosting this event.
The abstracts are extremely interesting and I hope that we will have an inspiring and fruitful conference that will lead to a lively exchange of ideas and results.
I very much hope that you have an enjoyable stay in
Rotterdam, a city characterized by its port as well as its wide variety of modern architecture.
This event has been made possible by generous support from the Erasmus University Rotterdam and Transumo. Mirjam Lagerwaard from EUR has provided much appreciated assistance in all matters concerning accommodation, refreshments and dining.
