On Wednesday, February 1, 2018, the compendium secretariat organized its intermediate expert group meeting. At this intermediate process evaluation, the secretariat reported on the progress made within the Compendium 2018 trajectory and also brought new ideas to the table. With this new edition of the Compendium, the secretariat intends to focus even more on meeting the expectations of its target audience. This is done, among other things, by implementing a thorough refurbishment of the various publications and a refreshment of the Compendium house style. It was also decided to simplify the naming of the various thematic products and to focus on a more user-friendly acquisition of facts and figures.
These expert group meetings form a strategic process follow-up of the compendium process and are held three times for each new edition. By doing so the compendium secretariat guarantees in the best possible end quality. A final expert group meeting will be held after the summer holidays, before the release event in autumn 2018.
