The IAVCEI Executive Committee is extremely happy to inform you that the new IAVCEI website will be activated on February 2 (https://www.iavceivolcano.
The new website (in WordPress CMS) should provide us with more efficient and more friendly access to real-time information and communication on all volcano-related matters, together with connections to social networks (Facebook, Twitter, and our new born Instagram). It is also intended to host the webpages of our Commissions, Working Groups, and Networks (already the case for 13 of these). The website will also offer access to the newly created e-Volcano Platform where peer-reviewed multidisciplinary videos and MOOCs will be made available to scientists, teachers, students, and the public.
Further work is still needed to update sub-domains and a multi-language option is in preparation. The website (and our social networks) will be regularly implemented with information on volcano-related matters by a Communication Group coordinated by E. Nicotra and composed of a few IAVCEI trained volunteers (a call will be soon issued).

We do expect that such a new website will allow IAVCEI to greatly improve its overall communication and international attractiveness.

Dear registrants of COV11 and volcanological community,
We are living difficult times as the covid-19 pandemic has changed the political and social structure of the world, including the timing of the COV11 conference in Heraklion (Crete), Greece. In response, the COV11 local organizing committee (LOC), the IAVCEI Executive Committee, and Cities and Volcanoes (CAV) Commissioners, have exerted much effort to adjusting to this situation, and determining the will of COV11 registrants.
More than 700 people participated in our June survey of their intentions regarding COV11, which included the majority of those who have already registered for the conference. From those who had already registered, half planned to participate virtually, with the remaining half fairly evenly split between attending in person, preferring cancellation, or undecided. From these results, and with the encouraging easing of the pandemic and opening of European borders, we created a hybrid conference (physical and virtual) to be held during September 25-30, 2020.
Unfortunately, the spread of the pandemic has increased and accelerated worldwide, forcing further lockdowns, and restrictions to international travel. Taking into account, and the low number of confirmed physical participants, IAVCEI, the CAV commission, and the LOC have decided to postpone the COV11 meeting in Heraklion to 14-18 June 2021. This change is made for the safety of delegates and to make it more likely to have participation from our many professional communities.
