The website europeanbestdestinations.com rates Warsaw as its number one destination, saying: “You will be dazzled by its emblematic places such as the Old Town Market Square and its colourful buildings, the Palace of Culture and Science, the Łazienki Park and its palaces, pavilions and orangeries. During your stay in the Best European destination 2023 do not miss to stroll in "Krakowskie Przedmieście" the most prestigious street in Warsaw and to visit The Warsaw Barbican, the historic fortifications that once encircled Warsaw.”
The “dynamic and sparkling city” played host to The Global Forum on Nicotine conferences prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, and everyone involved with the event is looking forward to its return in 2023.
You can register now for the “four-day extravaganza” which is GFN23.
The conference team says that the GFN programme is now online: “We have added session titles, keynote speakers and hosts, with more speakers set to be added soon,” they say.
This year at GFN23, workshops will be taking place on Wednesday 21 and Thursday 22 June. “Don’t miss out - get in on time to get involved in those,” the organisers say. “Harm reduction is all about having choices! With all these great workshops, how will you choose?”

“Did you know that Warsaw is three times safer than Paris? Twice as safe as Rome and even safer than Vienna (Numbeo datas) and that the feeling of safety while walking alone was one of the highest for a European capital? It seems there are only good reasons to visit Warsaw this year,” adds europeanbestdestinations.com.
GFN23 organisers proudly announce that this year will also see a Spanish-language Symposia for the first time.
“Comprising two sessions, conducted in Spanish and translated into English, these panel discussions will run alongside other workshops. Hosted by Jeffrey Zamora and Dr Carmen Escrig, the panels will focus on consumer advocacy, and harm reduction and medical professionals.”
