Lisbeth von Benedek describes in her report high level of the presentations, and the most importantly the special atmosphere of the event, filled with generosity, hospitality and joy.
Throughout the conference the atmosphere was warm and friendly; besides that the organization impressive – with precise respect for the setting and the time allowed for the speakers, which prohibited tension and gave enough space for the questions. The presentations were of a rare depth and questions from the participants witnessed their own thoughtful reflections upon the topics in question.
