The purpose of this special year is to bring together researchers working in the area of 'Geometry and Physics', i.e. researchers working on the interface of geometry (interpreted in a broad sense, i.e. including differential and algebraic geometry, geometric representation theory, category theory, generalised geometry) and mathematical physics. The planned events will cater both to the experts (specialised workshops), non-­experts and students (school, lecture series).
