Hi All,
We are just about three weeks away from the symposium and we’ve had a number of questions about logistics.
If you haven’t yet registered, please note that registration is closing Feb 14th. Space is limited; once we are sold out of seats we will not be able to accommodate any additional participants. You can register here.
If you have any questions please send them to: dhis2symposium2016@dhis2academy.org
Visas: If you need an invitation letter for a visa, please send your request to dhis2symposium2016@dhis2academy.org. Note that refunds are not available at this time, so we encourage our international participants to register but not pay for the ticket until your visa is secured.
