Alameda da Universidade, Lisbon
The conference will take place at the School of Arts and Humanities of the University of Lisbon (Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa), located in the university campus of Cidade Universitária.The faculty is one of the largest and most prestigious institutions for humanities research and education in Portugal, with a long tradition in archaeology, history, philosophy, literature, and languages.
The building offers a wide range of facilities, including spacious lecture halls, seminar rooms, a well-equipped library, and comfortable social areas. The conference sessions will be held in dedicated rooms - Amphitheater IV - with modern audiovisual equipment, and coffee breaks will take place in the atrium.
The venue is easily accessible by public transport, especially via the Lisbon Metro (yellow line, “Cidade Universitária” station), and is within walking distance of hotels, restaurants, and green spaces such as the nearby Gulbenkian and Campo Grande gardens.
For accomodation we suggest the VIP Executive Zurique Hotel: https://www.vipzuriquehotel.com/
It is a 15-minute walk from the School of Arts and Humanities and just one stop on the yellow metro line, from Entrecampos to Cidade Universitária.

Taxis and Uber
Taxis from the airport can be expensive, and drivers are sometimes reluctant to take short trips. A good trick is to get a taxi from the departures area, where it’s often easier to find one. Uber is generally reliable and affordable in Lisbon.
