On Thursday the 3rd February 2022 ECOPOND Steering Committe held its new online meeting. All the project Partners met to discuss the progress of their work so far and their plans for the nearest future.
Each of the Partners presented the current status of the work within the WPs they lead as well as the calendar of works planned for the next months in the scope of the given WP. Also the issue of expected publications of each of the Partners was discussed.
Among the main discussion points was the Annual Report of the project, which is due by the 14th March 2022. An equally important issue was the organisation of a mid-project conference which would aim to popularise the topics undertaken within the ECOPOND project. It was agreed that the conference, which will present the current results of the project's research and analysis, would be held in October 2022.
The Committee meeting was also a good opportunity to introduce the new member of the team – Guillaume Wos, who starts in February as a post-doc in the project at the Institute of Nature Conservation PAS (Project Beneficiary).
The next ECOPOND Steering Committee Meeting is planned for June 2022, after the sampling scheduled for this year is completed.
