Accessibility
FOSDEM welcomes all free software and open source developers! While we don't own the university campus and have little control over its accessibility, we have tried to find ways for developers with physical limitations to make the most of the event.
Visual or auditory needs
For people with visual or auditory needs, marked places near the speaker are available in the following rooms:
- H.2215 (Ferrer)
- Janson
- K.1.105 (La Fontaine)
- UA2.220 (Guilissen)
- UB2.252A (Lameere)
- UD2.120 (Chavanne)
- UD2.218A
Wheelchair and limited mobility needs
There is a limited number of reserved car park spaces available.
At nav.fosdem.org, you will find our on-campus route planner. It has an option for avoiding stairs. All routes calculated with this option set should be wheelchair and limited mobility accessible.
Unfortunately, some rooms are only accessible by using stairs:
- AW1.121
- AW1.125
- UA2.114 (Baudoux)
- UA2.118 (Henriot)
- UA2.220 (Guillissen)
If you understand French, the ULB's website may be a useful source of additional information.
Accessibility contact
All FOSDEM staff members (yellow shirts) and volunteers (orange shirts) should be able to help you find accessible routes around the campus.
Suggestions welcome
