Update on WFDB 9th Helen Keller World Conference and 3rd General Assembly 23-27 October 2009 in Uganda.
Dear friends, I want to update you on the latest development about our World Conference.
At the venue we planned for our conference the necessary accessibility features were not in place.
WFDB has selected another venue in Uganda.
I had the opportunity to inspect the facilities in the first week of February and the local organising committee in Uganda established by NADBU, the Ugandan National Association of Deafblind hosting the conference had its meeting there on February 10th.
The venue of the conference is the Speke Resort Munyonyo.
Speke resort is a 5 star resort, situated 12 km outside Kampala on the shore of lake Victoria. The airport Entebbe is about 35 km away.
The resort is fully accessible.
It has 449 rooms, so all participants can stay at the same place.
Room Prices
102 USD per day for a single de luxe room with breakfast including all taxes
140 USD per day for a de luxe Double room/ twin room with breakfast including all taxes
All rooms have air condition, bathroom with bathtub (a few with showers) refrigerator which can be stocked as minibar, safe, balcony or terrace with chairs, insect screen, mosquito net, flatscreen tv with 30 channels, telephones, coffe/tea maker and 24 hours room service.
1litre of mineral water per person per day is included in the price
Free internet access in the room if you bring your own laptop and free wireless internet on the conference site
Swimming pool and health club at no extra fee
Golf carts for a joy ride around the resort
The venue has a large garden with waterfalls and fountains and a new marina where boats can be hired.
Boat trips on the Victoria lake (at a fee)
Horse riding (at a fee)
The conference venue is closed and has a gate with access control and security staff. It is therefore completely safe to move around in the resort. The resort hosted the last Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in 2007 and many heads of states from the Commonwealth countries stayed at the resort.
