Following the recommendation of the EGF board the turkish organizing committee stepped back last week. In the meantime the EGF board managed to find two alternatives one from Germany (Oberhof) and one from Russia (Sochi). The board decided to give the congress 2017 to Russia, Sochi.

Thanks for all the work which was done preparing these proposals in such a short time. We feel very sorry that the congress in Turkey didn’t work out and hope the organizing team will reapply to hold this event in the future!
