[Xmca-l] Re: Re-generating CHAT: Interesting symposium on July 2, at 5 pm Central European Summer Time

Dear Mary

Thank you for your good question. Let me respond to everyone, because
others might have similar questions.

You can find the symposium in the program of the conference I linked. Here
is the link to the program: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://earli.org/SIG10-21-25*programme__;Iw!!Mih3wA!V5jMQHrZ6wMWJIiyRJk16nU_JQPVhdstej4i-Xtb4ENK7BjBsRa-4c-OOOIcdlTpzJT9Rw$ 

It is both in the "downloadable PDF file with presenter details" and
described in the website as one of the invited symposia under the heading
Programme.

You do not need to be paying EARLI member to register to the conference and
join the symposium. When you follow the registration link, there is a
chance (and link!) to do an EARLI account, which does not cost anything.

Hope this is helpful! If you or others have further questions, you can
consult my personal email antti.rajala (at) helsinki.fi and I am happy to
advise on the matter.

All best, Antti
