[TYPES/announce] NWPT 2021 call for contributions - deadline 10 October

[Tarmo Uustalu]

NWPT is a series of annual regional-scope workshops on programming
theory, targeted especially at younger researchers. In 2020, the
workshop had been scheduled to take place in Reykjavik, Iceland, but
had to be cancelled (postponed) because of the pandemic.

As the epidemiological situation in Iceland is currently relatively
good, NWPT 2021 is now going ahead at short notice as a hybrid
meeting, the circumstances permitting.  

We hope this will be a nice opportunity especially for our PhD
students and postdocs to attend a real physical workshop and present
their work and to meet their colleagues from elsewhere in the Nordic
countries - after a break of 1.5 years.

Travel to Iceland

This may change, but at the moment anyone fully vaccinated or
recovered from Covid can enter the country without any restriction of
movement after arrival, but needs to present a negative result from a
PCR or rapid antigen test taken before departure (not older than 72
