On all four days of the conference, a large number of
side events will take place which are
related to conference themes and are organised by conference
participants on their own responsibility. A number of side events
focussing on the same special themes have been combined into
one-day side events. The organisers and their side events will be added to the list below as soon as details become available.
The application process for all side events ended in mid-March, after which a committee headed by the conference conveners completed the selection. The names of the organisation, institution or association and the themes of their side events will appear below as soon as they reconfirm their participation.
