The International Workshop on Low Energy Positron and Positronium Physics is one of the most traditional satellite meetings of biennial ICPEAC conference and is held with the aim of promoting the growth and exchange of scientific information in the field of antimatter chemistry and physics. Topics covered by the Positron 2005 workshop are related to positron, positronium and antihydrogen collisions with ordinary matter (atoms and molecules) and their role in technological applications and space science. This edition of the Positron Workshop will be held in parallel to the 14^th International Symposium on Electron-Molecule Collisions and Swarms with the intention of exploring the affinities of the two areas. The Positron 2005 International Organizing Committee invites the community to submit abstracts on the aforementioned topics.
   The scientific program will consist of sessions of invited plenary lectures, reviews, progress reports and special reports. Contributed papers will be presented as posters in afternoon sessions.
