The partners had the opportunity to meet and discuss the project's progress before the Multiplier events and the Final Conference. The fifth Transnational Meeting of the project was organised by ACEEU at its headquarters in Münster, Germany, and was attended by seven key team members.
Each partner country introduced the results and experiences of the Pilot Phase, enabling an overview of the developed materials' impact on social managers. Furthermore, it allowed partners to discuss the required modifications on the learning materials to introduce them during the upcoming Multiplier Events to validate them through experts on circular economy. In addition, the consortium engaged the discussion for coordinating and planning the remaining activities.
The meeting was also complemented by an insightful Social Sustainability discussion facilitated by a colleague from ACEEU, Harshitha Polathula. The workshop focused on brainstorming ideas for a project aligning with the social sustainability dimension. Partners participated in the discussion by comparing their cities and Münster and how each could contribute when creating more socially sustainable communities.
The agenda of the two-day meeting also included a cultural activity where the consortium walked through the city admiring the gothic architecture and enjoying the city centre. In addition, partners had the chance to visit some of the most known tourist places in Münster and try typical German cuisine. Indeed, the opportunity and environment allowed the teams to develop their bond with each other further.
Overall, the TPM in Münster was a great success, and the Circular Loops partnership looks forward to concluding the remaining activities on a high note!
