Childcare
Would you like to take part, but don't know who can look after your children during this time? No problem!
The AWI Family Office offers childcare during the Postdoc Days. If you would like to use this service, please contact Wini from the Family Office: familienbuero@awi.de
Reminder
Please keep in mind that the Postdoc Days are free of charge for you, but cost the AWI money (e.g. for catering, payment of speakers and trainers etc.). Therefore, we kindly ask you to make sure that you have no other commitments during the Postdoc Days. Cancellations at short notice, which we unfortunately receive more and more frequently, are not only annoying for us, but also very expensive.
We look forward to seeing you in Bremerhaven,
AWI PostDoc Team & PROCEED
