Summary:"Harmonic mappings have played in recent years and will likely to play in the future an important role in differential geometry and theoretical physics, where they are known as s-models. These proceedings develop both aspects of the theory, with a special attention to the constructive methods, in particular the so-called twistorial approach. It includes expository articles on the twistorial methods, the various appearence of sigma-models in physics, the powerful analytic theory of regularity of Schoen-Uhlenbeck."--
