This conference originates from the activity of the GYPNET network, a network of scientists working on gypsum ecosystems and is part of the activities of the H2020 GYPWORLD project, aiming at promoting international research on gypsum ecosystems. As such, it aims to initiate a series of International Conferences focused on any research done on gypsum ecosystems. It will offer an International forum to interested scientists from around the world to present and discuss research results in all aspects related to GYPSUM ecology.

The conference brings together academics, researchers and professionals and offers keynote speaker sessions, oral talks and poster presentations providing an ideal forum for scientific interactions and interchange of ideas.
