Prometeus Internal Workshops on Knowledge Acquired and Knowledge Return Phase.
Date: 6 December 2023
Online Event

Workshops

These workshops provide an opportunity for researchers to share new skills/competence and knowledge acquired during the secondment. The results of the activities performed during the secondment will be described by Secondees and discussed among researchers.

Participation is restricted to Prometeus Partner Organization.
