NEFERTITI Annual Meeting 8 9 April 2020

NEFERTITI project held its 3rd VIRTUAL annual meeting on 8th and 9th April 2020. Initially planned F2F meeting was replaced by plenary online presentations, chat questions & answers section and “meeting room” for 10 NEFERTITI network discussions. Almost 100 participants joined the event. Partners shared their expectations, concerns and practical information on good practices, considering the extraordinary situation Europe is facing related to COVID-19 pandemic and potential impact on NEFERTITI activities. Particularly concerning the forthcoming 2020 on farm demonstration campaign.

As concluded, the virtual demonstration activities and virtual cross visits are the most immediate results foreseen in 2020 demonstration campaign. However, the project activities will continue, and new website and platform features are already in place or envisaged in near future.
