The 16th International Workshop on the Dark Side of the Universe/2nd Gordon Godfrey Workshop on Astroparticle Physics took place on 5-9 Dec 2022 at The University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney, Australia, hosted by the Sydney Consortium for Particle Physics and Cosmology.  It brought together a wide range of theorists and experimentalists to discuss current ideas on models of the dark sector of the Universe and to relate them to ongoing and future experiments.

The meeting featured invited plenary talks covering topics of recent interest, as well as a number of parallel sessions to provide an opportunity for junior scientists to present their work.

The workshop was preceded by the 3rd Sydney Spring School, aimed at graduate students and young postdocs, held on 30 Nov-2 Dec 2022 at the University of Sydney.

We thank everyone for their contributions and look forward to seeing you again in Sydney in the future.
