This section contains information about the OSSATE International Workshops, listed in chronological order.
International OSSATE Workshops are events open to the public, where the work of the project is presented, and issues are discussed with invited professionals and stakeholders. Participants come from the tourism and ICT sectors, and from NGOs which represent consumer interests, including organisations of disabled people and older people. Participants are charged a fee covering the cost of meals, refreshments and materials (handouts, etc.). You are warmly invited to note the dates of the planned workshops, read the programme and register for an event. Please note the registration deadlines.
This International Workshop focussed on the organisational and technical aspects of setting up OSSATE's cross-border accessibility e-service for the tourism sector. Concrete proposals for inter-organisational networking and data exchange were discussed with possible future partners and other interested organisations.
The Hellenic Ministry of Tourism and the OSSATE Team are pleased to invite you to take part in the 2nd International OSSATE Workshop on "Accessible Tourism", to be held in Athens, Greece on 8th-9th September 2005.
This Event will present the objectives and approach of the OSSATE initiative. It will mark the launch of a new, European forum for dialogue and collaboration on accessible tourism, involving the tourism industry, accessibility and disability organisations, as well as information and communications technology (ICT) providers.
