Post-Congress Review & Handouts

 

10 September 2024

A successful #ERSA2024 Congress, both online and onsite!

Dear colleagues,

it is with pleasure that I send you the report of the questionnaire on the degree of satisfaction of the ERSA congress. All in all, the degree of satisfaction is high.

We make sure, however, that the suggestions raised will be an input for our next congress in Athens.

I take the opportunity to thank the LOC, and Tomas Dentihno in particular, for the great work done in organising the congress, and to all of you for participating.

See you all in Athens next year!
