She started with an lecture and after that there was a lively discussion – also on the chat – about different themes. For instance the question what is a good name for the profession. The reactions were positive, the EHP will develop more activities in this field.

One of the reactions:
“Very valuable to connect with other humanists in the same field. Let`s stay in touch!”
