In the midst of complexity, to share a common ground of understanding is the key to unroll complication and evolve. In a nutshell, concepts are important. They are raw building blocks that we can use to express thoughts and ideas, share information, understand others and grow personal relationships. Like spells, words make things exist, real and usable only at the moment and in the way they are named by us and others.
Below you find a first AID – Collab 4 HySust CCI – glossary kit to support your application and open a common ground of exchange and understanding, starting from the meaning of words, especially for those used within the sphere of innovation.
Applicants will be invited to participate in the preparatory session at the Transnational Launch Event taking place in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, and online, September 1st. You will be expected to contribute your own experiences and learn from others, benefiting from a safe and trusted environment.
Also possible in hybrid attendance!
The supported organizations will participate actively in 4 knowledge sharing sessions, two of which will be conducted in a hybrid format. Two of them will be fully online and two in hybrid format, so more organisations can join the networking and benefit from shared know-how, insights, and tools.
