Homeshare International is delighted to announce that the 7th World Homeshare Congress – originally planned for 2021 but delayed due to Covid-19 – is going ahead in May 2023.
It will take place at Dublin Castle in Dublin, Ireland hosted by local organization THE HomeShare, and supported by Ireland’s Department of Health.
The opening reception will take place on Wednesday May 24th 2023 with congress sessions on Thursday May 25th and Friday 26th May 2023.
The world congresses are particularly helpful for new programs – and have even inspired people to set up a program where none existed before.
