This hybrid workshop will be held at the Banach Center of the Mathematics Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences, June 25-26, 2025, with 2 days for the workshop program.  Several aspects of geometric topology will be covered, interacting with algebraic topology, coarse geometry, geometric and analytic group theory and dynamical systems. The workshop will foster interactions between geometric topologists in Poland and abroad.
