The GOVTRUST Center of Excellence of the University of Antwerp, one of the TiGRE partners, has contributed to a nice survey on trust in government and information in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. For this study, three rounds of a weekly ‘Corona survey’ were held among the Belgian population (7 April, 28 April and 26 May 2020). A research note on the results can be found here: https://www.uantwerpen.be/en/research-groups/govtrust/blog/updated-research-note-trust/.

The TiGRE kick-off meeting has just taken place. The meeting was hosted by the project coordinator at the University of Lausanne (Switzerland, 28-30 January 2020). All consortium members had the opportunity to meet, often for the first time, and get to know each other. During the three days meeting, the project idea was introduced, the work plan detailed and the work for the coming months discussed.

A walk through the historic centre and at the lakeside of Lausanne as well as a typical Swiss cheese fondue were highlights of a great time we all spent in Lausanne.

TiGRE has started today and will run for 42 months, until 30 June 2023. TiGRE consortium members will collaborate to analyse trust relationships in European regulatory policies. For this purpose, TiGRE has a total budget of 3 million Euros.
