Even if the consortium meets regularly online, these few days together physically are valuable for the cooperation and smooth application of the project.

The second transnational meeting, held in Hanoi in the beginning of January 2020, was very fruitful, clearing the next steps and targets and equipping with necessary knowledge about the process and how to reach the aims. Also, one essential part of the face-to-face meetings is partners getting to know each other, which again builds trust and facilitates openness and cooperation. The common understanding is growing about how this group works together towards the common goals, and how it benefits from the variety of expertise and talents within the consortium. Everybody’s special knowledge and expertise is appreciated and the opportunity to exchange knowledge is forming base to effective consortium work.
