Orbifolds are useful generalizations of manifolds that appear naturally in
the study of moduli spaces, particularly those arising in Gromov-Witten
theory, where in good cases, these moduli spaces are orbifolds and
Gromov-Witten invariants are suitably defined characteristic numbers.

In this talk I will present a framework to study cobordism of orbifolds. As
application, I will show decompositions of cobordism groups of orbifolds in
terms of usual bordism theory these decompositions involve information
around the singular sets and provide a way to define invariants for
orbifolds.

I will start recalling the classical results on cobordism of manifolds, and
bordism theories and discuss its generalization to orbifolds.
