During the first day of the review each Work Package leader gave a presentation on the progress of their Work Package throughout the first year 1 of the project. This was followed by a series of question and answer sessions and plenty of discussions between the reviewers and project members.

Following this representatives from SHU, USTUTT and WAAG demonstrated their meSch prototypes to the reviewers in the ‘Greek World’ section of the Allard Pierson Museum, using objects and content from both the Allard Pierson Museum itself and the other meSch museum partners, Museon and the Museo Storico Italiano della Guerra. The second day of the review began with the remaining work package presentations, before a break to allow the reviewers to have a detailed discussion and develop their feedback to the project. This was followed by stimulating and detailed discussions with the review committee about various aspects of the project valuable comment and constructive criticism was provided about the project going forward in to year 2. Overall the outcome of the review was a great success; we received extremely positive feedback from the reviewers who, during their final conclusions, commented on the excellent progress that had been made and the high standard of work that had been produced so far. After the review Professor Daniela Petrelli (meSch Project Coordinator) was delighted by the outcome and thanked everyone who attended the review and those who stayed at home for their effort and outstanding work throughout the year, adding: “You surely know by now that the review went really well, in my view it could not have been better “.
