General Summary

The meeting focused on outreach strategies for ON-DEM. Key targets include industries (mid-level managers, R&D departments; companies that don’t know they need DEM), schools (nurseries to high schools), universities, festivals, and community groups. Challenges include understanding capabilities of members and different education systems within EU. Festivals, universities and high schools are seen as easier targets. The discussion emphasized creating a pool of activities (especially some easier to be used by anyone), leveraging EU funding, and using social media and LinkedIn for outreach. ON-DEM outreach survey revealed 21 interested participants, with a preference for working with pupils and adults. The need for clear outreach definitions and practical guidelines was highlighted, along with the importance of industry engagement and public visibility. Finally creating a floating ideas list to be shared and emphasized within the network to find interested parties.
