8th HWCS International Symposium
Program for Friday 16 April
The Symposium will take place in "virtual" form on the Zoom(*) videoconferencing platform. The activities will be distributed in 3 simultaneous sessions for the duration of the symposium, as represented in the table included on this page.
To connect and participate, simply click (or tap) the link in the title of each of the activities, shown in each box of the table.
It will therefore be necessary to enter the password that will be previously provided, via e-mail, to all registered users, before the start of the Symposium.
Warning: if the maximum capacity of the virtual rooms is exceeded and it is not possible for some to participate through Zoom, it will be possible to attend the Symposium through 3 YouTube channels, one for each session, whose links are shown in the 
buttons placed in the headings of the table.
(*) This obviously means that the participants must have installed the Zoom program on their PC / tablet / smartphone. Unfortunately the simultaneous translation system prevents the use of the Zoom program for Linux. Participants will only be able to use the versions for the Microsoft, Apple and Android platforms.
Please note: in the program table, times are showed for GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) and for some representative cities.
