Each group discussed the contents of the text book, and then all groups together discussed it. This core university program supported research exchange within two countries. A banquet held on the 1st day offered the participants a chance to strengthen the ties with the representatives of each country. The exchange of opinions was fruitful, sharing their perceptions and future visions of this issue.
