Dear colleague,
        
        We will be holding information days in Brussels on 15th and 16th 
January 2007 in support of Challenge 7: eInclusion, within the ICT part 
of the new 7th Framework Programme. We                 will provide 
information on Call 1 and Call2 as regards eInclusion.

        You are invited to participate and also to actively contribute 
to this meeting by sending your proposals in the form of maximum 3 slides.

        Presenters will get 3-5 minutes to explain their proposal and 
are requested to focus on bringing a clear and short message to the 
audience. Sessions will address:

                + Embedding accessibility in mainstream ICT
                + Computer simulation of the user interaction
                + Non-invasive Brain Computer Interaction
                + ICT for Social Inclusion of young people
                + Advanced Prototype Systems for Independent Living and
                  Active Ageing
                + Open Systems Reference Architectures, Standards and
                  Platforms

        Please indicate which of the sessions you would ideally like to 
present within.

        Contributions should be emailed not later than 5 January 2007 to 
einclusion at ec.europa.eu.

        You can of course also participate without a presentation. We 
will allocate places on a first come, first served basis. Please email
