UN/ICA Week of Geographical Names in Timişoara

Timişoara (Romania), 9-13 September 2008

A joint meeting of

• the UNGEGN Working Group on Exonyms
• and the Commission on National and Regional Atlases (CNRA) of the International Cartographic Association (ICA)

will bring together experts on geographical names and cartographers to discuss the topic of geographical names and their different modes of use in a comprehensive way. The week will be organized in the form of two subsequent meetings accessible not only for the members of the respective subgroup, but for all other participants interested. A common excursion to the city of Timişoara and to villages in its surroundings with various cultural backgrounds will round up the event.

Timişoara is the centre of the Romanian Banat and a multicultural city. It is easily accessible by air from several major European airports (transportation essentials ). The joint meeting will take place in the Adam-Mueller-Guttenbrunn-House, the German cultural centre located at the fringe of the downtown (venue map). Accommodation can be provided by hotels nearby.

The week is open for all persons interested (irrespective of UNGEGN divisions and working groups as well as ICA commissions).

English will be the usual working language, but French is also very welcome and special translation arrangements will be provided.
