Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the project was suspended, meaning without secondments, from the 7. March 2020 to 30. April 2022. The project was then suspended for 26 months. Due to this period of inactivity in secondments, the project was extended from the original end date on 31. March 2023, to the new end date on 31. January 2025, giving the project a period of 44 working months. After the restart of the project in May 2022, a total of 36 completed secondments were executed. This gives a total of 42 completed secondments from the start of the project.
The Consortium organized 2 workshops during the reporting period, one hosted by the partner EHTEL in Belgium and another in a co-organization of NTNU, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and Co-Robotics in Italy.
Several project partners participated in various events and disseminated the project. These included: Robotics4EU Co-creation workshop in healthcare, Oslo 6.6.2023 with the participation of partners NTNU and IDMind. Presentation at Reykjavik University in Iceland by the partner TUKE.
