After much consideration, we have now taken the decision to deliver this conference digitally, to mitigate the risks of the ongoing global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The decision to shift was made in consultation between the daCi Executive Committee, the Advisory Board and with the conference co-chairs Norma Sue Fisher-Stitt and Nancy Francis. The major factors in the decision making included the continuing uncertainty and unpredictability of the pandemic, and the emotional, physical, and financial fallout of prolonged and varying disruption worldwide.  In adopting this digital approach we also considered issues of access and reliable internet, a degradation of connectivity for participants and the challenge of multiple time zones. The conference organisers will now seek to reimagine the format and opportunities a digital or hybrid live delivery might afford. We hope to encourage members to continue to connect on a more local, national, or regional level where possible whilst participating in the digital program. As we work to navigate through this reimagining we have now updated our timeline to reflect this decision.
