Despite the fact that in our last communication we had informed that the XV Conference of the Engineering, Social Justice and Peace Network was going to be face-to-face with the possibility of connecting through virtual means, it will not be possible for reasons beyond our control.
The pandemic in Colombia and in much of the world has not yielded, which is evidenced in a second and third wave in several countries, with mortality even higher than the first wave. This has created impediments to the holding of massive events, as well as international activities due to the measures taken in each of the countries. In addition, the development of vaccines through the capitalist production and consumption system, in the current world-system, has made the countries of the Global North have the possibility of accessing vaccines while countries of the South, such as Colombia, have not yet bought. a single dose.
Therefore, we will continue with the conference but virtually, keeping the date from June 10 to 12, 2021, which implies several logistical and economic changes. That is why registration will be free, but we will receive voluntary contributions by means that we will inform, according to their possibilities, for the payment of the platform that we will use and cover the logistics of the event.
Likewise, from this moment on, we open a new call to present their work until next March 31, respecting the decisions they have made or want to take on the contributions already sent. Later we will send information about the registrations and the platform that will be used.
The schedule will be as follows:
- Sending summaries of papers and workshops, as well as confirmation of contributions already sent (except for those who have already confirmed): until March 31.
- Acceptance of abstracts: April 30.
- Registration: from May 1 to June 1.
- Conference: from June 10 to 12.
