2. Fill in the meeting proposal form.
3. Send an email describing your meeting: the topics to be covered, expected speakers, expected audience and number of participants, and any other information you may think will be useful to: Frau Marina Meinel marina.meinel@uni-due.de with subject heading "SPP Meeting proposal". Please attach the budget spreadsheet.
Sorry for all the hoops you will need to jump through, maybe we can simplify the procedure once we get things running.
The deadline for submitting meeting proposals is January 9, 2015. I and the other members of the Steering Committee will decide about the proposals and let everyone know by January 23.
Important point The meetings will be funded out of the Coordinator project, which will be discussed along with the research projects at our project review on December 17-18.
