Final Workshop in the District of Recklinghausen, Germany – August 2017
Highlight of the final workshop and certainly of the whole EU-project was the celebratory signing of the ´Memorandum of Understanding on Sustainable future networking` by all partners. The joint signature was conducted by Ingrid Jerneborg Glimne (County of Sörmland), Ilze Vītola (Jelgava Local Municipality), Leszek Bizoń (District of Wodzisław) as well as by Harald Nübel (District of Recklinghausen).
More activities of the programme from the 27th to 31st of August 2017 were an international cooking-event with self-made specialities of all engaged regions and a tour alongside the river Emscher with different sightseeing stops. In the final group work session the importance of the project for the work on location in every district was emphasized. Creative highlights were the project summary in form of a poem and the living sculptures showing the importance of Europe which were presented by the participants. The train to “Europe” was then boarded by everyone…
At the closing evening memories were exchanged and celebrated under accompaniment of a Jazz-combo. All involved persons hope for an early reunion, at the best within the framework of a further common EU-project!
