On 7th July, 2008, a concluding workshop about the present project was held in Bucharest. The aim of this workshop was to survey with all the partners, the achievments  obtained during two years of activity and to sketch the perspectives and future activities in the field. Ten Romanian and Two French specialists attended the workshop.
