[Gala-l] IGALA11 online

[[Shared] IGALA11]

(apologies for multiple postings)

Dear colleagues,

The IGALA Executive Board and the local organising committee for IGALA11 have made the decision to shift the IGALA11 conference online. While we would have loved to be able to welcome you all to London in June next year, we feel like this is the best course of action given the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing travel restrictions. Our current plans include a mix of asynchronous (recorded) presentations to be made available online, as well as various synchronous (live) discussion and interaction sessions during the scheduled conference dates (21-24 June 2021). We are currently discussing options with a digital events provider, and we will be in touch again with more details once we have them. We do anticipate that there will be a registration fee for the online IGALA11 conference (to cover the costs of setting up and delivering the online system), though we anticipate those costs will be lower than planned for the in-person event. We will confirm registration fees as soon as we can.

We look forward to having you join us for IGALA11. In the meantime, we hope that you are all keeping safe and well. Do not hesitate to be in touch with us if you have any questions.

best,
Erez
