The Transnational BRIDGES meeting in Finland was held 13 - 16.03.2023.
Previous BRIDGES meetings have implemented different working methods for achieving a common understanding of the project and its deliverables amonsgt partners. This time, instead of challenging the WP leaders to spend time on an introductory presentation, partners have discussed the implementation of their activities as a workshop. All partners were communicated the expectation that they have spent some time with regards to preparations and ideas in relation to project activities up to this project meeting. Almost all partners have budgeted working days in all WPs, so this applies to all WPs and not just WP’s for which they are the leader.
Central questions accross WPs were:
- what has each partner that has been given days in the WP’s done so far & what they are planning for 2023?
- what do the partners need help with?
- how to collaborate in the WP’s?
- delegation of work load?
- when sharing experiences with one another, how can these ble implemented in the other partner countries?
Action minutes have been recorded and followed-up on in subsequent monthly digital meeting.
