During the first year and a half of the SustaiNext project, the busy agenda of the 21 European partners that make up its consortium has been dotted with all kinds of events (conferences, workshops, meetings, forums… and even book presentations!) in which they have gone out to meet stakeholders to publicise the project, the innovation it proposes, the added value it represents and, little by little, the first results obtained.
