All partners actively contributed to assessing the quality of the materials and their applicability in diverse learning environments. The constructive dialogue underscored the collaborative spirit that characterized the entire project.
On the second day, the focus shifted to dissemination efforts, long-term sustainability, and exploitation of the project results.
