INCAI is a formal International Network of Catholic Astronomical Institutions. Among the Network activities, we are organizing annual workshops on research in Astronomy. The First INCAI Workshop was held at the Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2011. The Second INCAI Workshop was held last year at the Catholic University of America, Washington, in 2012. The Third INCAI Workshop will be held at the Pontificia Universidad Católica in Santiago, Chile, in 19-24 August 2013.​ The theme of the III INCAI Workshop is Exploring the Nature of the Evolving Universe. The scope of the workshop is to discuss evolution in the Universe at all scales, from the formation and evolution of planets, stars and galaxies to the Big Bang.
