In addition, participants are expected to follow these guidelines:
From its beginning, at the first European Workshop on White Dwarfs held in Kiel (Germany) in 1974, the spirit of tolerance, friendship, and respect has characterized these meetings. In the current edition, where we celebrate its 50th anniversary, such values have been continuously passed on to new generations as one of the greatest achievements of these meetings. Our community is proud to promoting the values of respect for diversity in its most wide and inclusive conception, and to enhance the collaboration and positive discussion of scientific ideas among all of our members , as the ultimate goal for achieving a proper and growing scientific community.
Thank you for helping to make ISTA events welcoming for all.
