FOOTPRINT final conference

A total of 100 individuals attended the final conference of the EU-funded FOOTPRINT project which took place at the University of Giessen (Germany) on 18-19 March 2009.

The aims of this final FOOTPRINT event were:
- to present an overview of the extensive work which has been undertaken within FOOTPRINT;
- to provide live demonstration of the 3 FOOT tools that the FOOTPRINT partners have developed (FOOT-FS, FOOT-CRS and FOOT-NES);
- to discuss the potential uses of the FOOT tools in all European Member States;
- to present the follow-up of FOOTPRINT and discuss future versions of the FOOT tools to meet specific requirements.

A series of specialised workshops in the use of the 3 FOOTPRINT tools followed the conference.

PDFs of the various talks which were presented by the FOOTPRINT partners can be downloaded below.
