The red update button is your friend! The more you use it, the more concrete information you get. ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ members - together with the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ team - are working hard to achieve a mutually beneficial situation of sharing information on the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ Association Database.
Keep finding ways to press it and you'll be in the running to become the next Researcher of the Month - or even Researcher of the Year!
Priscilla Overdiek, Consulent congrestoerisme at has secured the coveted title this month! Here's what Myriam had to say:
How is the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ database beneficial for your work/organization?
We use the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ database on a daily basis. It provides valuable information and helps us to identify which international associations are organising conferences that are potentially interesting.
It’s important to us that we find a good match between Leuven as a city, the know-how present in Leuven, and the conferences we attract.
We also do our utmost to add meeting editions to help keep the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ database up to date. This is not only an advantage for us but also for all other users of ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½.
Do you have any tips for your fellow ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ members?
Use all aspects of the database. It is useful for your lead research to make a selection and use the 'save’ feature. Don't forget to regularly update your search parameters.
If you have any questions or encounter any difficulties with the database, do not hesitate to contact the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ team. They will certainly help you!
What positive message would you like to share with ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½World
We are all in this together! Most of us have been through a difficult time these recent years. However, it is my belief that with a positive attitude and collaboration we will manage to come back stronger. It is vital that we share information, best- and worst-case practices, and listen and learn from one another.
