We do not allow partners to attend the workshop, unless they apply and are accepted in their own right. Our venue is very limited and we are pushing its capacity with just the workshop attendees. We can make exceptions where there is a young child involved, where your attendance is only possible if you bring a child minder with you.
If, like me, your partner comes to Chile with you, so that you can go on vacation together before/after, then we can recommend great places to stay in the general region. We will also put all partners in touch with each other, so that they might coordinate their activities and hang out together. This has been successful in the past. Just let us know: rcousens@unimelb.edu.au Partners are welcome to join us on the Sunday night before the workshop in Temuco for dinner/drinks (to be arranged).
