To the STIMULATE  participants:

It is now time to say farewell.

We hope that STIMULATE has been an enjoyable and interesting experience for you all.

We would like to thank all those who contributed to the success of this training program, and in particular

• Prof. Marc Nyssen for his efforts to take care of you at the VUB campus in Jette
• Prof. Egbert De Smet for his continuous enthusiasm in working with people from developing countries
• our colleagues from KUL who are partners in this project
• Katrien DK who has contributed to the social and cultural program
• and of course to Liesbeth G. who has been a calm, reliable, and hard working secretary for this training course

Thank you for being such a nice, kind, lively and friendly group of colleagues.

STIMULATE 4 will probably take place October-December 2004. We invite you to recommend participation to your colleagues.

You should have learned a lot in a short period from our teachers, but also from each other, and not only about science but also about culture and international relations.

We hope that you go home with an enriched mind, so that you will be able to contribute to a better and more peaceful world for us all.
