Practical Information
Accommodation
SLE has reserved small two-room apartments with a shared bathroom at a university guesthouse from 7 August to 18 September 2010.
The rooms will be offered to holders of scholarships for two consecutive courses.
The rent for four weeks is between € 400 and €500 per person per room.
Participants may arrive on 7 August at the earliest. The cost of an additional over night stay (before 7 August) is about € 35 per night.
The guesthouse is modest but safe and is located within walking distance of SLE in the centre of Berlin.
Participants staying at this guesthouse should arrive before 22.00 hours on the day of their arrival.
Should scholarship-holders not make use of this offer, the rooms will be offered to other course participants. In general the guesthouse is in heavy demand during the summer. We nevertheless encourage participants who do not hold a funded scholarship to inquire at the guesthouse if further rooms are available and at what they cost. Please use "SLE Plus: Berlin Training for International Development Cooperation" as reference.
