Dear colleagues,
On behalf of the SOC and LOC of the CASCA 2026 Annual General Meeting (https://www.astro.umontreal.ca/casca2026/en/), we are pleased to invite proposals for Town Halls and/or thematic lunch sessions.
We are seeking ideas that will foster engagement, discussion, and community exchange, and that will contribute to a diverse and dynamic program. In particular, we encourage proposals that include interactive formats such as group discussions, panels, or Q&A sessions.
Deadline : 15 February 2026 (by end of day)
Please note that proposals from different organizations may be combined to form a single lunch session, where appropriate. In most cases, organizing groups will be expected to provide lunch for participants.
If you are interested in organizing a Town Hall or thematic lunch, please submit a brief proposal outlining the topic, format, organizers, and anticipated audience by completing this form:
We look forward to receiving your ideas and to building an engaging and inclusive program together.
With best regards,
René Doyon and Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo, on behalf of the SOC and LOC
