“Hello fellow GMRG members,
The wait is over, 2020 GMRG Annual Meeting is just round the corner, scheduled on September 4 and September 18. We are excited for this years annual meeting which will be fully virtual and ‘the’ place to exchange interesting ideas on the collection and deployment process for GMRG instruments. During the fully planned 2-day event we will be focusing on data collection issues and efforts for GMRG-VI. We are planning to launch GMRG-VI survey in different regions of the world as soon as the pandemic allows and hence, it is very important to have each one of you with us before that.
We encourage you to register (click here), if you haven’t done that yet, and join in for all the interesting webinars designed and lined up especially for you.
We hope to organize the data collection as soon as the pandemic allows a return to “normal” operations. Please contribute your thoughts on the upcoming Annual Meeting as we would like to hear your questions and suggestions to make this event an enriching and successful experience for all of you. The questions and suggestions can be submitted to our attention (Click here).
