Project partners of SPEME (read about the project here) visit each other in turns. Groups of academics and practitioners from memory sites exchange on their work and discuss challenging practices from their own organizations and networks. In May 2022 H401 and the University of Amsterdam host colleagues from Italy, Argentina and Colombia.
