One of the SPOT project tasks was to collect comparative information on several themes. These themes are not directly part of the quantitative data collection but are a requirement for project reporting. We collected comparative data across the different case studies to put together into a summary report. Given the nature of these data, we decided to collect them as “expert” assessments from teams. The topics included: economic development and growth; impact on jobs; the impact of cultural tourism for de-industrialised areas, for peripheral areas, for cross-borders issues; how cultural tourism could promote tourist flows and how over-tourism could be managed. Finally, we included a section on the impact of COVID-19 on tourism. Each country is referred to by the international notation, but we should note that data was collected about case studies within countries, rather than the country as a whole. For this reason we have included a table below indicating how country notation is used and to which case study it refers.

The revision format This work is intended to raise students' understanding of curricular difficulties while also preparing aspiring educators from courses offered led directly to educational pedagogic studies. The curriculum is an umbrella term for the educational world, and it generally includes elements such as nature, history, theory, implementation logic, implications framework, curriculum translation system, curriculum relationship with educators; learners; education system; policymakers, and various internal and external variables which further enhance the creation and continuity of the curriculum in education. The curriculum is being examined in the context of Indonesia, and it corresponds to the present worldwide conditions of the debatable COVID19 outbreak. As a result, the content of curriculum teaching materials developed at this time may likely interact with the factual background and the Indonesian government's strategy in adopting an autonomous curriculum, which begins with an emergency, prototype, and matures into an empowered curriculum. As a consequence, students will be consciously critical in developing curriculum studies and applying curriculum knowledge which is always in line with changing times and supports Indonesia's national educational goals.docdroid https://ufile.io/dashboard

This presentation was part of the webinar What is Ageism? Ageism in the Social Media at University of Third Age, Scotland, 26 April 2021. In this webinar, members of the European Network EuroAgeism provided insights into current research on ageism in the media. The media (e.g. newspapers or social media sites) can be seen as one of the many institutions that contribute to the construction of stereotypical images of ageing and old age. At the same time, the media can play a crucial role in breaking stereotypes and helping to solidify the socially and culturally constructions about older people and late-life. Among other research, an example of ageist portrayal of nursing homes in newspapers during COVID-19 were discussed. During the first part of the webinar activities of the whole EUROAGEISM H2020 project in all 15 FIPs/ESRs projects were introduced

Press Release

Within the framework of task 5.2 of the European Joint Programme, HBM4EU, human biomonitoring guidance values (HBM-GVs) are derived for HBM4EU priority substances. The methodology applied to derive these values is described in the concept paper released in the HBM4EU task 5.2 workframe (HBM4EU concept paper) and published in a peer-reviewed journal (Apel et al., 2020). For the time being, HBM-GVs are derived in HBM4EU under inclusion of experts from the 30 partner countries. Future use and implementation will be discussed among partners and the EU Commission but are without prejudice to existing or ongoing risk assessment work in order to inform EU policy-making. Several HBM-GVs for the general and occupational population have already been derived for some phthalates and a substitute (DEHP, DPHP, DnBP, DiBP, BBzP, DINCH, see Lange et al., 2021), bisphenols (BPA (Ougier et al., 2021), BPS), cadmium (Lamkarkach et al., 2020) and recently for aprotic solvents (NEP, NMP, DMF, DMAC, see Deliverable D 5.9). During the production and the consultation phases of the deliverables describing the derivation of such HBM-GVs, interesting questions were raised and valuable comments have been received. Some of these comments may justify a refinement of the methodology of the derivation of HBMGVs as elaborated within HBM4EU by UBA and ANSES. Most of the HBM-GV proposals aimed to improve harmonization approaches for the two populations: general population and workers. It was then decided within task 5.2 to organise a workshop that was initially aimed to take place at ANSES in spring 2020. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the workshop was postponed and held virtually over three afternoons, from November 4th to 6th. Topics that have been discussed are related to: How to address the differences between the derivation of HBM-GVGenPop and HBM-GVworker? Toxicokinetics and modelling aspects Selection of (exposure) biomarkers (BM) and matrices Level of confidence (LoC) associated to HBM-GVs How to deal with non-threshold substances in the occupational field? The current status of the strategy to evaluate HBM results for mixtures, exemplary for phthalates In the current deliverable, a summary of the main discussions and proposals for the refinement of the methodology for the derivation of the HBM-GVs is reported. These proposals will be taken up in future HBM-GV derivations, if appropriate and feasible, and can be seen as optional to the methodology paper (Apel et al., 2020). The workshop was audio recorded to facilitate the reporting of the workshop and for subsequent research activities. The audio files and transcripts are stored safely on a secured server and are only distributed among the organisers of the workshop. In the first instance, a draft report of the workshop has been produced. Participants were given the opportunity to give feedback on this draft report. A final report has then been produced as part of a deliverable for HBM4EU that will be made public on the website after approval of the Management Board and the European Commission.
