CADC has placed a deposit on the venue ADASS-2022 in Victoria. We are working with University of Toronto and University of Victoria to host this meeting. Due to long-lead times for conference venues the ADASS-2022 <a rel="nofollow" href="https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/edit/IVOA/LoC?topicparent=IVOA.IvoaExecMeetingTM96;nowysiwyg=0" title="LoC (this topic does not yet exist; you can create it)">LoC</a> is requesting details on possible IVOA Interop attached to ADASS-2022 (incuding possible executive session). The Interop is being planned for the days before the ADASS-2022 meeting at the same hotel as we have used for previous IVOA Interop in Victoria (Laurel Point)

CVO will be pursuing 'CoreTrustSeal' certification within a cohort of Canadian data repositories that are moving through this process together. Expect CTS process to finish by end of summer 2021.

The Euro-VO activities are in part supported by the ESCAPE project (https://projectescape.eu). Work Package 4 of ESCAPE "Connecting ESFRI to EOSC using the Virtual Observatory" recently held a number of events:

   * A Virtual Observatory School on Interoperable Data with 38 participants and 13 tutors. https://svo.cab.inta-csic.es/svoMeetings/index.php?mid=54&action=page&pagename=Meetings/SVO_thematic_network/First_ESCAPE_School/Presentation
   * The 2nd "Technology Forum" - concentrated on the standards and tools for data providers to connect to the VO. Presentations from ESO, CTA, KM3NeT, EVN, ASTRON, EGO-Virgo show the various levels of progress in using the VO.

Within the revision of all INAF projects promoted by the new President, VObs.it has been proposed as a "programme" (long-term project), coordinated and funded by INAF with the formal participation of ASI (SSDC - Space Science Data Center). Participants are 23 staff from 7 INAF sites, ASI-SSDC<span style="background-color: transparent;"> and the University of Padova. Evaluation is expected by the end of August.</span>

In preparation for the proposal, two virtual meetings were organised: an information webinar (8 March) to update the community on the IVOA activities and accomplishments and on the VObs.it role (44 participants), and a workshop (28 April) for a technical discussion and preparation for the future events: the IVOA Interop and the ESCAPE/CEVO Hands-on Meeting for Data Providers (25 participants).
