[ASA] Call for ACAMAR Workshops 2021

[Robert Shen]

Dear All,


ACAMAR has recently held its first online meeting in November 2020,
enabling it to continue the dialogue between Australian and Chinese
astronomers.  The plans for a face-to-face meeting had been disrupted
earlier in 2020 by the shutdowns due to Covid-19.



With the success of the first online meeting, ACAMAR would like to offer
support to groups who would like to organise an Australia-China Workshop,
during 2021.  ACAMAR is particularly interested in supporting initiatives
which seed dialogues between groups of astronomers in areas of astrophysics
that have not participated extensively in previous ACAMAR meetings.  The
online infrastructure to support a workshop, principally based around zoom,
will be fully supported, and additional funding may also be available if
required. Organisational support will be available.



Generally, proposals for workshops should include both Australian and
Chinese astronomers, a proposed SOC, an outline of the workshop topics,
suggested dates and a proposed budget. ACAMAR is particularly interested in
workshops that include activities specifically supporting and including
graduate students and early career researchers.



Expressions of Interest should be forwarded to Robert Shen at AAL:
robert.shen at astronomyaustralia.org  by *10 February 2021*.


Many thanks,
Robert
