Every year, through the Directorate for Science, ESO provides support and funding to organise scientific workshops in Santiago and in Garching, as well as co-funding some external workshops <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/urKECOMKzVTArD1zLTESsoT?domain=eso.org">including meetings in Sydney in 2019 and Perth in 2020</a>. A <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/B-FDCP7LAXf4ABz81C01rsD?domain=eso.org"><span style='color:blue'>new Call</span></a> has been issued inviting astronomers to submit proposals for ESO workshops to be held in 2023, either standalone or teaming up with ESO staff and fellows <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/72WrCQnMBZf64nvM1uMp3aR?domain=eso.org">in Chile</a> and/or <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/g6AlCROND2urPw4jDUO9FDv?domain=eso.org">in Germany</a>. Note that ESO has implemented a <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/ZzwRCVARKgCljVqNnhQdcKZ?domain=eso.org"><span style='color:blue'>Code of Conduct</span></a> for Workshops and Conferences, which applies to all meetings funded by ESO, hosted at ESO premises or organised as online events. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>The deadline for workshop proposals is <b>5 September 2022</b>. The proposal should describe the scientific area to be covered by the workshop and the format (e.g. expected number of participants, location, organising committee, keynote speakers) using the <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/O04ZCXLW2mUn7lEVPc7eUwq?domain=forms.office.com">form provided</a>. Note that there is no need to contact potential SOC members or invited speakers formally at this stage. When planning your workshop, please take into account that ESO has inserted diversity and inclusion as one of the core goals of the organisation. As such, ESO strives to achieve diversity in all its form including, but not exclusively, gender and career stages in every organisational aspects, including representation on the organising committees, session chairs, and through invitations to high quality speakers. To monitor the success of this policy the Offices for Science will be collecting demographic information of participants for all 2023 ESO Workshops.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-AU'>Proposed workshops will be evaluated by a committee of ESO Faculty astronomers. The selection committee will rank the proposals based on the scientific timeliness and the perceived benefit to ESO's programmes and community. If approved and if the workshop is co-chaired by both astronomers (external and ESO proposers), the ESO staff will act as the local point of contact (LOC) for those workshops taking place at ESO premises.
