There are no abstracts of talks yet, but talks are supposed to focus on:

Type theory and its models. The relation between type theory and homotopy theory.
Categorical logic and category-theoretic foundations.
Constructive mathematics, especially formal topology and reverse constructive mathematics.
Nonstandard analysis, especially its constructive aspects.
Philosophy of mathematics related to constructivism.
