🌟 Exciting Times at the MAAS Project Workshop in Reykjavik! 🌟
We recently gathered in the beautiful city of Reykjavik, Iceland, for a two-day workshop on June 27-28, 2024, as part of the MAAS project - "Match, Attach and Sustain: New methods for Europe’s Job Brokers supporting Tourism businesses, Ukrainian refugees, and job seekers."
The event, hosted at Vinnumálastofnun's Head Office, brought together partners and experts from across Europe to discuss and advance various work packages of the project.
On Day 1, we started with a warm welcome from Unnur Sverrisdóttir, Director of Vinnumálastofnun, followed by sessions on Project Management led by Trimtab, and the Community of Practice Platform led by Rinova. After a productive morning, we continued with discussions on Methods and eGuidance for Tourism Job Brokers led by Dimitra, and the eTracking Tool and Portfolio Builder led by Sextaplanta. The day concluded with a discussion on findings and next steps, followed by a happy hour at Kristjana's home and a delightful dinner at Restaurant Ráðagerði.
Day 2 focused on the continuation of the eTracking Tool and Portfolio Builder session, followed by Dissemination, Exploitation, and Legacy led by Folkuniversitetet. We wrapped up with an internal evaluation meeting and then enjoyed a trip to the North.
The workshop was a fantastic opportunity to collaborate, share insights, and plan the next steps for our project. A special thanks to all participants for their invaluable contributions and to our hosts for their warm hospitality.
