The section conjecture of Grothendieck's anabelian geometry speculates about a description of the set of rational
points of a hyperbolic curve over a number field entirely in terms of profinite groups and Galois theory.
In the talk we will discuss local to global aspects of the conjecture, and what can be achieved when sections with
additional group theoretic properties are considered.
