Thursday, April 3, 2014 to Friday, April 4, 2014

Venue:

Alicante, University of Alicante

After a year and a half, the GADGET consortium returned to Alicante for the third consortium meeting and “café” from 3rd to 4th April 2014 at the University of Alicante (UA).

Each partner reported the project progress and the foreseen activities in the last 6-month project lifetime. The organisation of the final conference was well discussed and the team would start preparing this last meeting in Brussels in the next weeks.

Besides the consortium meeting, Austrian and Scottish partners were invited to experience Spanish café on the following day. This café, New and niche employment market: Energy and Environment, focused on the big challenge for graduates – employment, which drew the attention of a newspaper, let alone the UA itself.

The event attracted students, professors and private sectors that are in the field of environment and energy to discuss the tendency in and expectation from the labour market.

In addition, GADGET had a chance to exchange ideas with the Pacific, Fiji and Papua New Guinea precisely, thanks to the participation of the delegates from another European project, EPIC, under the EDULINK programme.
