Stellar accretion during the pre-main sequence phase is known to occur in non-periodic, often intense, bursts. These accretion bursts are accompanied by strong photometric brightness variations of the star, typically on time-scales of months or longer. At the same time smaller amplitude changes in the pre-main sequence star's light curve, on time scales of weeks and days, are expected due to inner disk warps and accretion columns that move into the line of sight as the star-disk system rotates. In this contribution we present our observational programme to study the variability of several hundreds of PMS stars in the low metallicity environment of the Magellanic Clouds. The signatures of the photometric variability shall allow us to obtain evidence for the accretion phenomena (bursts or steady accretion) and inner disk morphologies present for PMS stars in the Magellanic Clouds. Comparisons with Galactic samples will show if/how metallicity plays a role for the physics of accretion from the inner circumstellar disk and its evolution.

\r\n\r\nThe quest for detecting exoplanets (e.g., via Kepler and HARPS RV surveys) has revealed the existence of a large population of systems comprising one to several planets very close to the central star, i.e. at distances of 0.1-1 au, even around TTauri (age<5 Myr) stars. These are usually slightly bigger than the Earth and up to Neptune sizes, with rare Jupiter analogues. This finding differs to what we observe in our own Solar System, and raises the question of how such planets form. From a theoretical point of view, it is still hard to show that these planets formed in-situ, but it is similarly complicated to explain this large population of close-in planets as a result of migration through the disk. Additional evidence of the importance of this region comes from our own Solar System, where studies have established that material routinely observed in meteorites (e.g., Ca-Al-rich inclusions, CAI) must have formed very close to the central star, or in a very hot region of the disc.
\r\n\r\nTo advance our understanding of planet formation and migration, it is crucial to study the conditions within the inner regions of their progenitor protoplanetary discs. The innermost part of the disc is where most of the star-disc interaction processes take place. The magnetic field topology of the central star truncates the disc at a few stellar radii and drives accretion of material onto the central star, as well as the ejection of fast-collimated jets and slow winds. Recent studies indicate that this star-disc interaction evolves quickly at the same time that giant planet formation ceases. Also, this region is known to undergo rapid evolution, for example, short or long lasting dimming events (e.g., AA-Tau, RW Aur, dippers). This rapid evolution is, in itself, likely to impact the formation of planets. Finally, a fraction of discs known as transition discs, show a deficit of dust in the inner few au of the disc, which could be related to the mechanism driving disc evolution in this planet-forming region.
\r\n\r\nStudies of this key inner disc region require innovative techniques and a wide range of instrumentations, since radio interferometers cannot resolve spatial scales smaller than ~10 au in most discs. Observations with instruments on the ESO/VLT and VLTI and other facilities provide us with unprecedented detail and motivate this workshop. Specifically, this workshop aims at discussing the present-day knowledge of the morphology and composition of the innermost regions of the disc, of the star-disc interaction processes, and of the theories to describe the evolution of the innermost regions of discs and of the formation of close-in planets. The workshop will thus cover the following themes:
\r\n- observations of the innermost regions of discs (<0.1-1 au, with near-IR interferometry, adaptive optics, spectroscopic techniques, space-based diffraction limited telescopes such as HST and JWST in the future)
\r\n- modeling of the inner disc (structure of the inner gas disc, disc walls, effects of magnetic fields)
\r\n- observations and theoretical predictions of processes happening at the inner disc-star interface (e.g., magnetic fields, accretion, jets)
\r\n- observations of exo-planets close to the central star (hot Jupiters, transits...)
\r\n- theoretical predictions to explain the origin of planets detected close to the stars
