Covid-19 Contingency Planning
Given the changing environment with Covid-19, there is some uncertainty around whether an in-person conference will be able to go ahead.
The committee will monitor the Covid-19 alert levels and will make changes to the conference format accordingly.
We hope that the conference will be able to go ahead in-person, however, we are preparing a contingency plan to
look at other options if necessary.
