The situation in Denmark (as elsewhere) has come to the point where the Corona virus is spreading across the country and creating challenges as to holding all types of events, and in particular large international conferences. Consequently, the Danish Government and other countries have issued strict measures.

In Denmark, the entire public sector, including universities, are practically shut down for, so far, the next fourteen days. Furthermore, it has been decided that all public and private events exceeding 10 persons must be cancelled. These measures are likely to be extended. In addition, restrictions on travel to and from Denmark have been imposed.

Consequently, the Department of Law and the EAPIL Board and Scientific Committee have decided that in the view of the Corona virus situation in Denmark and in other countries, and due to the national measures including the current and possible future travel restrictions regarding travels, imposed by the Danish authorities and other countries as well, unfortunately, we have to cancel the EAPIL Aarhus Conference in May 2020 and postpone it until next year (27-29 May 2021).

As host of the conference, we very much regret this postponement, but this is a necessary choice and the best solution. In particular, we would like to apologize for the inconvenience it may have caused you. If you have already booked accommodation in Aarhus for the conference in May this year, please cancel your reservation as soon as possible as, otherwise, the hotel will charge you for the fee.

However, we very much hope that you will participate in the postponed EAPIL Aarhus Conference in May next year.

If you have already registered, it will be possible to transfer your fee already paid to a registration for the 2021 conference. If you wish to do so, we kindly ask you to confirm this not later than Friday 17 April 2020 by e-mail to Gitte Schneider: gs@law.au.dk.
If we have not received your e-mail by that date, we will automatically pay back your fee as soon as possible after that date.

The conference programme remains unchanged, and all the speakers have been invited again for the 2021 conference.

We hope to see you all in 2021.
