With Peter Schuster we have organised the Workshop:
From sets and types to topology and analysis: practicable foundations for constructive mathematics, Venice, 12-16 May 2003
Arnold Beckmann and I have organised the special session on proofs and computation as part of the conference CiE 2005: New computational paradigms, Amsterdam, June 8-12 2005.
I've been in the programme committee for the next two CiE conferences: CiE 2006: Logical Approaches to Computational Barriers, Swansea, 30 June - 5 July 2006 and CiE 2007: Computation and Logic in the real world, Siena, June 18-23 2007.
