to announce the “Latin-American Conference on High Energy Physics:
Particles and Strings III” to be held in Havana, Cuba from July 20 to July 24,
2020. The conference aims to bring together leading experts to review the main
conceptual insights in the fields of particles, gravity and strings in accessible
and self-consistent terms and to build new scientific links between the
particle physics communities of Latin-America, North-America and Europe. </span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;font-size:12pt">The Conference
also aims to introduce the Cuban scientific community to ongoing research in
Particle Physics. </span></p>

economic situation of Cuba we are not able to provide any kind of
financial support to cover travel or local expenses. The conference will
be funded mostly by a fee (180 euros) to be paid by all participants, including
speakers, that will cover a welcome cocktail, coffee breaks and lunches at
historic restaurants in Old Havana. We are applying for some funds to support
the participation of students and researchers from Cuba and Latin America.</span></p>
