On behalf of the organizers of the Salento Macro Meetings 2020:
Despite having received more than 60 high-quality submissions, we are forced to cancel the event for reasons that presumably do not need much of an explanation. The situation is improving, but many universities are still reluctant to agree on missions abroad. At the moment, the possibility to organize public events in public spaces is also pending under current uncertainty. We could not take the risk of having too many on-line presentations.

In spite we are sad for the decision taken nowadays, we are already working on an extended edition for the end of August 2021 to cancel any regret for this unfortunate edition.
