About

This year, the International Workshop on Algebraic Topology (IWoAT) resumes with a summer school on equivariant homotopy theory. This two week event will take place in Shanghai, China from July 19 to July 30, 2021. It will be in hybrid form, with both in-person meetings and online components. The planned events for IWoAT 2020 have been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
