Welcome

Conference Venue

In association with the Joint Technical Committee on Natural Slopes and Landslides (JTC1) and the Federation of International Geo-Engineering Societies: ISSMGE,ISRM and IAEG (FedIGS), the Colombian Geotechnical Society-CGS cordially invites the international geotechnical community to participate in the XIII International Symposium on Landslides-XIII ISL, which will be held from June 15 to 19 - 2020 in the city of Cartagena-Colombia. All information about the event at http://www.scg.org.co/xiii-isl/index.html.

Our invitation extends to all those colleagues interested in presenting papers, and in a very special way to invite students and professors of universities and research centers, and to the representatives of industry and research for the installation of stands to display software, equipment and geotechnical services. Finally, we invite you to enjoy our tourist attractions and the hospitality of our people.

A call for papers is currently underway. The deadline for submission of papers has been extended to February 17, 2020. Previously, no later than February 14th, full manuscript (4 to 8 pages in length, abstract included), shall be submitted to the conference organizing committee through the ISSMGE's Conference Review Platform:
