Dear researchers,
After some meetings, we have decided to go ahead and continue with the organization of the V Tarragona International Environmental Colloquium (TIEC). However, we will celebrate it as a 100% virtual conference. We would like to persist with our academic objectives in an increasingly complex world. This will mean substantial changes in comparison with previous editions of the Colloquium but we think it is worth it. During the coming weeks, we will continue working hard to ensure the quality of the event and communicate, as soon as possible, relevant information in relation with the platform we will use, logistic issues of the event, so on.
Due to the changes, we will extend the deadline for abstracts submission until April 15th. Therefore, we encourage researchers to submit their contributions before the deadline. We will do our best to communicate the accepted abstracts by the end of the month.
We will continue providing updates on this matter soon. We will keep you informed through our website and social networks as new information and developments emerge.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
All the best,
TIEC Organizing Committee

Dear researchers,
Due to the rapid evolution of the situation regarding Covid-19 (Coronavirus), it is very hard to predict what the situation will be when we reach June. Our ability to carry out the Colloquium will depend on numerous factors beyond our control (including government decisions and our university’s instructions on this matter).
Up to this writing, we have decided to go ahead as planned and continue with the organization of the V Tarragona International Environmental Colloquium.
Furthermore, we will extend the deadline for abstracts submission until April 1st, and we will do our best to communicate the accepted abstracts by April 20th.
In these exceptional circumstances we are considering the possibility of organizing the colloquium as a virtual conference (or at least partly). Therefore, we encourage researchers to submit their contributions having this possibility in mind. We will provide updates on this matter soon. We encourage researchers who have not yet made travel/accommodation arrangements to postpone them until the situation is clearer.
We will keep you informed through our website and social networks as new information and developments emerge.
We look forward to seeing you (in person or virtually) in June 2020!
All the best,
TIEC Organizing Committee
