ARLA/CLUSTER: Conferencia Geral da IARU Região 1 2020 vai ser virtual e divida em duas partes

IARU Region 1 General Conference to be in two parts

The *IARU Region 1 2020 General Conference* will no longer be an in-person
event. Instead an online conference will be held October 11-15 with an
additional in-person event in 2021

IARU Region 1 say:
In the light of the COVID-19 problems, the IARU Region 1 Executive
Committee has consulted with those Member Societies planning to attend the
2020 General Conference. As a result the clear majority support an EC
proposal to split the Conference into two parts, the first part on the
scheduled dates by virtual means and the second part in-person on a date to
be determined in 2021. The 11–15 October 2020 event will consider much of
the “business as usual� elements of a General Conference in Committees C2,
C3, C4, C5 and C7.

Amateur radio is an exciting activity, offering great opportunities to
those who get involved. But IARU and its member societies face some very
significant challenges for the future to ensure that in-flow into amateur
radio is further stimulated and that Member Societies and IARU continue to
be seen as relevant and supportive by new entrants. The 2021 part of the
Conference will, therefore, be primarily devoted to an exploration of these
issues and mapping a way ahead. It will be run in “workshop� format with
active participation from all Member Societies present, hopefully including
large numbers of “tomorrow’s� radio amateurs.

The deadline for papers for the virtual conference in October remains at
10th July 2020. Because of continuing uncertainties around COVID-19, the EC
will review the likely date for the 2021 in-person Conference later this
year. The deadline for contributions to the 2021 event will be set when the
date for that part of the Conference is decided and will be 10 weeks prior
to the event. This will also be the deadline for nominations to the
Executive Committee for 2021–23.
