On 5th June, colleagues from the Trimbos Institute (leading work package 5 on policy translations, sustainability and recommendations for scale up), Deusto University, and Parc Sanitari Sant Joan de Déu held the first round of policy dialogues at Deusto University, Spain. The interactive session was designed to bring together pupils, teachers, families and policymakers to explore pathways to scaling up IMPROVA after the project timeline ends. During this event, 18 attendees from all stakeholder groups came together to share their perspectives on the IMPROVA platform. The importance of a secure and up to date platform, as well as various ways to continue the intervention beyond the project lifespan were discussed.

This session was the first of four, with each trial site country (next to Spain: France, Romania and Germany) hosting a policy roundtable event in the near future.

More information regarding the policy dialogues will be available soon.
