Other topics proposed for this meeting: CKC webinars, sub-committees to collaborate on certain topics, CKC event on 26.05.2023 (the second day of LCPA conference http://www.lcpa.lt/en) in Vilnius and online, a separate website for CKC, engagement with other organisations, and some other related questions.
