Join us at the Conference Centre next to the CWI Building! The Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) is the national research institute for mathematics and computer science in the Netherlands. Renowned as the birthplace of Python, this iconic venue is a nexus of scientific progress and innovation. Whether you're here to share knowledge or simply soak in the atmosphere of discovery, the location promises to make this event memorable.

The CWI logo is prominently displayed above the entrance and on a sign projecting from the building. Below, the Amsterdam Congress Centre sign stretches across the front over the glass doors. The sky above the building is clear and blue with a few clouds, hinting at a pleasant day.

Gender Inclusivity

As part of our commitment to gender inclusivity, we're implementing measures to respect individuals' gender identities at EKAW 2024. During registration, attendees will have the option to provide their preferred pronouns, which can then be printed on their badges. Additionally, we ensure accessibility to a gender-neutral bathroom throughout the conference, providing a welcoming environment for all participants.

Silence/Prayer Room

A prayer or silence room will be available at EKAW 2024 for those in need of a quiet space for reflection or prayer. Visitors can speak to one of the organizers for assistance in locating the room.
