The 
Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematical Physics
 (ESI)
in Vienna will be hosting a research program on 
        Duality, String Theory and M-Theory
during the period  March 15 - July 15, 2000. 
The purpose of this program
is to bring together experts in this field and to provide a stimulating 
atmosphere for discussion and collaboration.
As part of the activity there will be a conference in the first half of 
April. We expect another peak of activity in June/July.
