The COVID-19 pandemic has put an end to face-to-face conferences for the foreseeable future. In light of this, the STOP, CO-CREATE and PEN projects felt a virtual joint symposium with key members of the three consortia would present an interesting opportunity for the projects to collaborate and share updates on progress to date, in the absence of opportunities to meet in person. The symposium focused on policy mapping, modelling and simulation of policy impacts, and addressing the needs of vulnerable and disadvantaged groups.
Quotes from the coordinators of the STOP, CO-CREATE and PEN project, as well as the link to the recorded symposium on 30th June 2020 can be found at the website of the STOP project here.
