๐RETORNA submitted the periodic report
At the beginning of April the Coordinator submitted the first periodic report of the project, collecting the activities of the first 24 months and explaining the objectives reached, the training activities organized for the DCs and the deliverables submitted and postponed, among other aspects that were all clarified within the periodic report.
The entire Consortium was involved in the technical and financial part of the report, with different online organizational reunions set up for the coordination of the tasks and deadlines.
The entire Consortium is very pleased with the final result and hope the reviewer will appreciate as well the work presented๐
