6th European Academy of Forensic Science Conference will be held in The Hague, the International City of Peace and Justice, from 20 to 24 August 2012...

The conference is open not only to the ENFSI community, but to 

all those who have an interest in forensic sciences. 

Previous conferences have been held in Lausanne (1997), Krakow (2000), 

Istanbul (2003), Helsinki (2006) and Glasgow (2009).

EAFS2012, the 6th edition in this series, will be held in The Hague and is hosted by the Netherlands Forensic Institute (NFI). EAFS2012 has a number of features, such as a focus on current multidisciplinary themes, a distinct interactive character, excursions to prestigious International Institutions based in The Hague and communication through social media. Furthermore, a forensic poet has a surprise in store for the participants.

The title "Towards Forensic Science 2.0" emphasises that the participants will be challenged to take 

an active role in outlining the future of forensic science. Outstanding keynote speakers and 

eminent scientists will provide the materials for this exercise.

The conference will also offer a platform through which participants can extend their personal 

networks. We offer a large exhibition space with various sponsor displays. Delegates as well as 

accompanying persons will be offered an attractive social and partner program.

Program

The program of EAFS2012 will consist of a scientific program of the highest standard, an 

attractive social program and an interesting partner program. In addition, there will be 

a well designed Trade Exhibition.
