AWIEF 2023 will be a fully in-person event, returning to its former splendor after the COVID-19 epidemic caused the event to go virtual and hybrid in 2020.

AWIEF 2023 will be a fully in-person event, coming back to its full glory since 2020 when COVID-19 pandemic forced the event to go virtual and hybrid.
