Dear Colleagues,

IHRA and the Conference Consortium are pleased to announce that the registration and abstract submission system is now open for Harm Reduction 2008: IHRA’s 19^th International Conference (11 – 15 May 2008; Barcelona, Spain).

When you first access the system, you will be asked to create a new user account by completing your personal details and choosing a user name and password. Once you have created your user account, you will be able to update your details and submit an abstract for the conference (by clicking the “your submissions” link on the system). As the conference approaches, you will also be able to use the system to check your abstract status and make payments for the conference.

Please forward this message to your contacts and networks, encouraging people to visit www.ihraconferences.net for more information on the conference and to register or submit their abstracts. I have also attached an ‘Abstract Guide’ for the conference. If any of you are able to translate this document for your networks, please let me know and I will upload the translated version onto the conference website.

See you in Barcelona!
