Overview:
The main objective of the meeting is for young people in Norway working on Dark Matter related topics to meet and get to know each other. Secondly, the meeting presents the new collaboration between the Oskar Klein Center for Cosmoparticle Physics (OKC) in Stockholm, Sweden and the DAMARA project on CTA as well as the new collaboration with the Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics in Oslo.
