In general, we recommend booking your accommodation soon, as winter is tourist high season in Tromsø (due to northern light and whale watching) and prices for accommodation were comparable to European capitals last winter.
We recommend accommodation in the city center of Tromsø, as this allows you to walk to the meeting venue. If you however prefer to stay somewhere else, you may want to use the city bus to commute (schedule is available here, tickets can be bought in the app “Troms Billett”).
Travel information for Nansen Legacy scientists
All Nansen Legacy researchers still actively involved in the project should purchase their travel as they have done previously (follow guidelines at their own institution) and apply for travel reimbursements by their respective partner institutions. The institutions will then send a compiled claim to the project office.
For symposium registration, the project administration will soon send you a booking code by email that will allow you to register for the symposium and book the hotel room through the registration system. Accommodation costs and the participant fee will directly be covered by the Nansen Legacy.
