Colleagues of the Centre for Development and Environment (CDE), part of the University of Bern, were host of the past project review meeting and work package leader meetings that were organised in Bern, CH on December 12th and 13th 2017 respectively. Despite the bad weather in western Europe (a number of flights were cancelled due to snowstorms), the meetings were successfully conducted and participants were able to participate either live or through Skype connections. Although the reviewers had many questions and were, at some points, critical about the work in the project during the review meeting, they were generally satisfied with the performance of the project. 
The next day, on December 13th, the review meeting was evaluated by the WP leaders and the project coordinators, and also project matters were discussed. 

Outputs of both meetings are listed at the Bern post-meeting information page (registered users only, login required).

Recently, a project profile was written about the SoilCare project and added to the project listing of the CommBeBiz website. CommBeBiz is a website that 'provides a bridge from bioeconomy research to business, and for social innovation. It works with FP7 and H2020 project partners at all stages of their ideas and research development to enable more effective and speedier transfer of knowledge to the marketplace, to policy-players and for the public good. CommBeBiz targets five specialist bioeconomy segments: Food, Agriculture , Fisheries, Forestry, and Biotechnology.'

With the addition of the SoilCare project, we hope to reach a wider audience and also hope to be able to disseminate our research to other channels. The project profile for SoilCare can be found under 'Library > Project Briefs'.
