This time at the Mönchengladbach City Library, whose modern and inspiring working environment provided an ideal backdrop for the scientific exchange. Together with the project team, initial findings from the research work were discussed and suitable ways of transferring knowledge were developed.
After a brief review of the eventful project year 2024, the researchers presented initial results on networking, thematic specialisations and the visualisation of collaboration in the cities studied. They also presented a concept aimed at communicating the results to various regional stakeholder groups in a targeted and understandable way.
The members of the advisory board, most of whom work in Mönchengladbach and Krefeld, contributed their experience to facilitate the project team's access to relevant networks and specialised departments. These valuable suggestions are now helping to transfer the knowledge gained in the final phase of the project into practical applications in a targeted manner.
A major final meeting is planned for July 2025, which will be attended by the advisory board members and other partners from the three years of the project.
