In the event that covid or other issues will prevent most speakers from arriving to Israel, the conference will become fully online on March 15. We will notify everyone on March 8 regarding the final format. The in-person part will be in accordance to the Tav Yarok (Green Pass) regulations of the Israeli Ministry of Health.
