Symposia Timetable

At the 45^th SciCom meeting, held in Dijon (France) on 4 September 2004, the EWRS has taken some important decisions on how and when to held its future Symposia:

The EWRS Mediterranean Symposia series has been cancelled. Should considerable interest to weeds and weed management in Mediterranean cropping systems arise from the membership, it will be channelled to a specific session to be organised during an EWRS Symposium.
The EWRS Symposia series will have a 2-3-3 year periodicity starting from the 10th Symposium (Poznan 1997) onwards. This is to systematically avoid the clash with the International Weed Science Congress (IWSC). As such, the dates of EWRS Symposia (past and future) are reported below:

Date	Symposium number	Place	Periodicity*
1997	10	Poznan (Poland)	-
1999	11	Basel (Switzerland)	2
2002	12	Papendal (The Netherlands)	3
2005	13	Bari (Italy)	3
2007	14	Hamar (Norway)	2
2010	15	Keszthely (Hungary)	3
2013	16	To be decided	3

*number of years after the previous Symposium.

Please read this table carefully should your institution consider to make a bid to host one of the next EWRS Symposia.
