This conference is organized by the South Africa Gravity Society, the CoE-MaSS, the Astrophysics Research Centre and the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban. The purpose of this conference is to consider present and future research directions in gravity theories and a variety of related applications in astrophysics and cosmology. We aim to review topical themes in research to be presented by leading experts in the field. Postgraduate students, postdoctoral fellows, emerging researchers and academic staff are welcome to attend. The formal presentations, mainly presented by national and international researchers, will cover research related to the central theme of the conference. Staff and postgraduate students will have the opportunity to participate in discussion sessions and make presentations on their research projects. Dedicated sessions, focussing on the link between gravity theories and potential research problems, are planned where all delegates should participate. The meeting will allow for plenty of opportunity for delegates to reflect and interact on common research problems. We are hoping to create an environment for greater collaboration and interaction so that new research projects may be identified. Emerging researchers will benefit from the expertise of senior researchers present.
