Events

The in-presence Project Kick-Off Meeting took place on the 10^th and 11^th of May, hosted by the Euroarab Foundation in Granada, Spain. The meeting was jointly carried out by the EU-funded STAND-UP project.

Partners exchanged thoughts, ideas for what concerns the technical aspects, communication strategies and the future steps of the project. The second joint-day aimed to enhance an understanding through a brief training given by the persons of concern on the use of open-source intelligence, which is highly relevant for the duration and the outcomes of both projects. Furthermore, Agenfor International introduced its Virtual Reality training in order to support the understanding of the training methodology that both projects will apply in a later phase, allowing them to contribute to the development of the training and its implementation in a more effective manner.

The training session “Tangles and Webloc Learning By Doing” took place successfully in Venice, on the 4th-6th of July 2022.

The training which was funded within the scope of BIGOSINT, STAND-UP and UNCHAINED projects, aimed to equip the attendees further on how to navigate Open Source Intelligence Tools, in order to combat trafficking in human-beings and hate crime/speech in a more effective manner.

The attendees had the opportunity to initially learn about the OSINT Tools in an in-depth manner, while also actively practicing through the Tangles platform for the entire duration of the training.

The Second Steering Committee Meeting was held on the 13th-14th of October 2022 in Trento, Italy!

Current developments and further steps to be taken within the project were discussed in the two-day SCM meeting, jointly with our sister project STAND-UP. The technologies to be implemented in both projects were thoroughly presented to the consortium partners by our sub-contractors!
