Months ago, we postponed our conference for a year, certain that by the end of 2021 the COVID-19 crisis would be under control. Unfortunately, the world is now witnessing new and more severe waves of the crisis. Given the current situation, we are obliged to postpone the 3rd WoCoLoR once again: it will now be held from 4 to 8 November 2022, during the Kartik Purnima festival. Please note that this does not change the submission process done so far: all accepted abstracts remain accepted for presentation at the congress.
