Welcome to the 16th Annual Conference of the Nordic Society for Phenomenology

Conference venues

The conference will be organized in two places: European Solidarity Centre on Thursday, and at the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Gdańsk on Friday and Saturday. European Solidarity Centre (ECS at the attached map; address: Solidarity Square 1) is located within a walk distance from the “Main Railway Station,” and from the Old Town Area. The main campus of the University of Gdańsk is located around 7-8 km from the European Solidarity Centre. Faculty of Social Sciences (building “D” at the map below; address: Jana Bazynskiego Street 4) is located near of the “Przymorze-Uniwersytet Railway Station.” The fastest way to travel between ECS and the university campus is SKM RAPID URBAN RAILWAY (link attached).
