The Concept
We are in the process of developing a tour to Morocco for DIS Faculty and Staff. DIS has generously offered to subsidize the tour at a flat rate of DKK 1.500,- for all DIS employees. The tour is open for spouses and family, but the subsidy only applies for the person(s) employed at DIS.
More specifically the tour will be a 4-day / 3-night package in Marrakech. If you want to make it a longer stay, we will be offering an add-on package (not subsidized by DIS) taking you off the beaten track to the "Deep South" of Morocco. Logistically, we aim at steering away from mainstream hotels and restaurants, and offer alternatives that are more local and traditional. This means that the accommodation will be in a traditional Riad (large family mansion with a central patio), and on the add-on package we will be staying in refurbished Kasbahs (fortified "castles"), and Bedouin tents in the desert. The purpose of the tour is primarily a leisure offering for DIS Faculty and Staff, and also an opportunity to bond and network with interesting colleagues with different disciplinary backgrounds while discussing burning issues like Globalization, climate Resilience and more. This diversity of backgrounds will hopefully add different perspectives, and make it an inspiring travel experience for all participants. |
