Dear EDXC friends,
Sadly, we will need to postpone the EDXC conference that was due to take place in September 2021.
This is, of course, due to the continuing uncertainties around Covid-19 and the various restrictions that are in place in most countries. These make travel either impossible or more expensive than usual.
Several members have expressed concern about whether they would feel comfortable attending a conference in September, and, people from many different countries attending, it would be difficult. It could also be that local regulations might suddenly prohibit such events, after we had booked accommmodation and flights.
Therefore, we are instead looking into options of rescheduling the next in-person EDXC Conference to take place instead, in May 2022. We will send more details on this when they become available.
We want to ensure the health and safety of members who would like to attend, whilst also maximising the chances of a successful and well attended conference.
There will be another EDXC online meeting (via Zoom) at some point this summer, open to everyone, the date is yet to be confirmed
Best wishes and stay safe,
Chrissy
