1st face-to-face SMILE partners meeting

May 2022 – After 18 months working solidly on line, the SMILE partners were pleased to finally meet and see each other fact-to-face. The meeting took place in Malta on 20 May 2022, hosted by the University of Malta in the impressive Fort St Elmo (Valletta).

During the meeting, the consortium had the opportunity to work on the way the institutional audit on diversity has to be delivered, review the state of the CPD courses and work on the draft Policy Agenda. 

Ten out of eleven partners managed to attend the meeting. All shared very positive feelings about the meeting, the work done by SMILE and the application of the tools in their institutions and their regions. The next face-to-face meeting will be in Cagliari (IT) in June.

First test audit in Malta

May 2022 – The first test audit of the “SMILE Diversity Audit Model” took place in Malta on 17-19 May, hosted by the University of Malta. The audit was done in two sessions (morning and afternoon), and involved the active involvement of a diverse group of participants who were happy to discuss the tool with the coordinators and some project partner of SMILE. This is the first audit of 20 expected in total. Once the tool is totally refined, it will be made available.
