On the 17th of November 2025, the SPARKLE Partnership was welcomed at Casa EMERGENCY in Milan. EMERGENCY, a core partner in the project, plays a crucial role within the consortium. With its extensive experience operating in Uganda and Sierra Leone, EMERGENCY serves as a vital link connecting the European and African partners.
The meeting provided an opportunity for the partners to strengthen their collaboration, showcase the outstanding results of WP2 through the Country Snapshots, and present the training materials that are scheduled to be finalized and shared by 2025. It also served to outline the general plan for the upcoming year, including testing, validation, and the Emergency mobilities. This meeting preceded the in-person mobility in Pordenone, Italy.
Looking ahead, the next in-person appointment in 2026 will be the mobility in both Sierra Leone and Uganda. During these activities, an Emergency technician will conduct training sessions for the trainers, presenting and explaining the information modules specifically developed for this capacity-building project.

The fourth TPM of ASTRA was held in Palermo, the last but one before the last meeting – along with a learning, teaching, training activity – planned in Warsaw. It was attended by Internet WEb Solutions, represented by Maria Cristina Scarano, and Ad Meritum’s delegates, being hosted by Idrisi Cultura e Sviluppo ETS.
Many of the results and project activities were presented in Palermo less than a month ago, on the occasion of the great Multiplier Event held in Palermo, which was attended by numerous Sicilian educational institutions, NGOs, representatives of the Erasmus+ Italy Agency and rural Sicilian municipalities, which host the actual memory of the former local Sulphur mines.
However, ASTRA is still ongoing and, on the occasion of this partnership meeting, new activities have been planned: the completion of our storytelling through images and documentaries (https://www.astramining.eu/storytelling.php), the progress of publications including the Report on the state of European post-industrial and former mining sites and above all the Handbook, which will address the theme of the revitalization of former mines from an entrepreneurial, cultural and creative point of view. The last point, the LTTA and its content, which will involve the researchers and educators at work in ASTRA.
