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.&nbsp; We aim to review topical themes in research to be presented by leading experts in the field.&nbsp; Postgraduate students, postdoctoral fellows, emerging researchers and academic staff are welcome to attend.&nbsp; The formal presentations, mainly presented by national and international researchers, will cover research related to the central theme of the conference.&nbsp; Staff and postgraduate students will have the opportunity to participate in discussion sessions and make presentations on their research projects.&nbsp; Dedicated sessions, focussing on the link between gravity theories and potential research problems, are planned where all delegates should participate.&nbsp; The meeting will allow for plenty of opportunity for delegates to reflect and interact on common research problems.&nbsp; We are hoping to create an environment for greater collaboration and interaction so that new research projects may be identified.&nbsp; Emerging researchers will benefit from the expertise of senior researchers present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Venue<\/em>: <a href=\"https:\/\/anewhotels.com\/hotels\/hluhluwe-safaris\/?gclid=Cj0KCQiA1sucBhDgARIsAFoytUt6ZM7CFA2qqAeFubHCokWiw67fui6fA6cJfrV_GPQdny2ph6zwnaMaAlrUEALw_wcB\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/anewhotels.com\/hotels\/hluhluwe-safaris\/?gclid=Cj0KCQiA1sucBhDgARIsAFoytUt6ZM7CFA2qqAeFubHCokWiw67fui6fA6cJfrV_GPQdny2ph6zwnaMaAlrUEALw_wcB\">ANEW Hotel, Hluhluwe<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Dates<\/em>: 17 \u2013 21 March 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Send an email to Ms L Gurudas, School of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science, UKZN, at <a href=\"mailto:gurudas@ukzn.ac.za\">gurudas@ukzn.ac.za<\/a> or call at (031) 260 1019 indicating your interest.&nbsp;
