The 5th Dialogue is organized by the Royal Institute of Technology KTH in two parts - online in March and onsite in June 2022.

The 5th Unite! Dialogue in 2022 is organised by the Royal Institute of Technology KTH.

will host the next Unite! Dialogue under the title New Horizons, which will take place in two parts: first in March (online event) and in June (face-to-face event). The aim was to meet in person in Stockholm in March, but the often rapidly and abrupt changes the pandemic has brought means that adjustments had to be made. The 5th Dialogue will therefore be split into two parts (March and June). This will allow for discussions to continue and decisions to be made in a timely manner whilst ensuring the safety and well-being of everyone involved.

8^th – 10^th of March: Online event. Part one is a digital event that will take place on the 8^th – 10^th March. This event will include sessions for Unite! Governing Platform, Unite Academic Forum, Plenary H2020 and General Assembly H2020 (further information will be sent to concerned parties separately).

Everyone from 911�� is welcome to attend the Unite! Dialogue Plenary session on the 9^th of March. The session will focus on current developments of Unite!. This meeting takes place at 11-13 Finnish time and will be online via Zoom.

13^th–15^th June: On-site event. Part two will be an on-site Unite! Summer Community event in Stockholm. This event gives the E+ Task Forces and H2020 Work Packages a chance to meet and discuss the latest developments. A preliminary programme and registration information will be available after the March event.
