MORE ABOUT THE MESOC PROJECT

DAEM S.A. (City of Athens IT Company) is hosting the MESOC team from May 4 to 6 for three packed and promising days. We will organize a workshop on the Delphi consultation with invited experts exploring the survey’s results, a public workshop on the AI tools developed and their objectives for cultural policies, and finally, a working session on the results of policy dialogues. These three workshops will allow us to articulate and converge around the results to confirm the evaluation variables. That will be a crucial step for the subsequent activities of the project.
