The benefits can be demonstrated through the number of publications produced and distributed, advice provided on citizen’s rights, participant numbers and feedback from workshops, training, study visits, seminars and events. The possibility of any harm arising from participation in study visits e.g. personal or physical injury while travelling or on site visits during study visits is outweighed by the benefit of connecting cross community, cross border and between other regions of Europe regions to share expertise and knowledge.
