BESTPRAC meetings continue to be an open and inclusive space for sharing best practices among the RMAs, also aiming at providing guidance to the most relevant topics identified by our community. We are preparing a combination of plenary sessions and parallel sessions, whereas one parallel session will be dedicated exclusively to financial topics, while the other will cover non-financial topics in grant writing and project management.
The agenda can be found HERE.
The part of the meeting will run in parallel sessions:
- Working group 01: General (Administration/Management & Legal)
- Working Group 02: Finance
