The purpose of this meeting is to gather researchers who have contributed to our understanding of quantum gravity by using nonperturbative path integral methods, in one way or the other related to Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT). This covers a considerable range of results, from exact treatments in 1+1 dimensions (purely geometric, multicritical and matter-coupled models, relation with random trees, zero-dimensional string field etc.) to investigations in 3+1 dimensions using numerical and RG methods (phase structure and transitions, construction of effective theories, spectral dimension, emergence of macroscopic geometry etc.), as well as a number of interesting results in 2+1 dimensions.
