Forget-me-not Newsletter

September 2018

Forget-me-not platform
The Forget-me-not platform is in its final development stage and it’s available for pilot testing. The user interface has
been localised and all content is now accessible in all partner languages, so that users from all the partner countries
will soon be able to benefit from the possibility to actively work with memories, be it in formal or non-formal care.
The platform is available at www.forgetmenotdigital.com

Training event in Cyprus


Members of the partner organisations gathered in Nicosia, Cyprus from the 13th to 15th March 2018 for the first training
event. The first-day programme focused on defining the main content, structure, methodology and validation of the
training framework. During the two remaining days partners suggested and discussed the content details of the five
training modules. All partners also agreed on the structure and main features of the videos and webinars that will be
part of the training framework.

evaluated and refined before all the partners organise dedicated Multiplier events in all partner countries reaching 150
stakeholders from the care training, care providing, public and NGO sectors.
