ASPECT User Forum and first General AssemblyThe second annual ASPECT User Forum was held over three days (from January 30 to February 1, 2024), and included a range of presentations and interactive sessions. It was fantastic to have participants from diverse sectors and backgrounds, with over 150 attendees joining the event, including stakeholders from research and academia, public authorities, the private sector and non-governmental organisations. The first ASPECT General Assembly brought together the project consortium, including researchers and Super Users from across Europe, to share the work carried out during the first year of the project and explore future plans. The consortium also benefited from hearing the reflections and feedback from the project’s external advisory board. Croatian members also participated in these activities. Recording of User Forum can be found on the official YouTube channel. You can find more information on the agenda of the event here. The next ASPECT User Forum is expected to take place in early 2025. |
