They also formed a joint future vision for ideal Indo-European SSH cooperation and discussed possible options for effective EU-India multilateral funding format to realise the vision for ideal Indo-European SSH collaboration beyond the lifetime of the Equip project.

Discussions was moderated by the Centre of Social Innovation (Austria) and the Research council of Norway (Norway) and supported through participative methodologies for group work, such as Card Games and scenario building through the Disney Method and the World Cafè.
