Venue
The SSES Annual meeting will be held at the “Uni Mail” building of the University of Geneva. It is located in the city center at the following address:
UniMail
40, Bd. du Pont d'Arve
1211 Geneva 4
Switzerland

There are a limited number of parking spaces available at the “Uni Mail” building but they are rather expensive. We strongly recommend using public transportation. If you stay in a hotel in Geneva, you can benefit from the Geneva transport card which enables you to use the local public transport network at no additional cost.

Public transportation
From the main train station (Gare Cornavin) tram number 15 takes you directly to the “Uni Mail” building (direction “Palettes”, stop “Uni Mail”). Bus number 1 and tram 12 and 13 also stop nearby (“Pont-d’Arve”).

If you arrive at the Cointrin airport, you can take the train to the main train station Cornavin (5 minutes) and connect with tram 15 to the University. Alternatively, you can take a bus to downtown. Bus number 10 will take you from the airport to the Cornavin train station and to the city center.

Further information on public transportation and time tables are available here: http://www.tpg.ch/.
