Over one hundred guests from the geothermal and academic community in Iceland, there amongst many of the key teachers and supervisors as well as former staff members of the UNU-GTP, participated in the Anniversary Workshop at Grand Hotel. It was a great experience to see so many of the UNU-GTP alumni and supervisors share their research results as well as meeting friends and colleagues from various parts of the world, reminiscing about the past, and plan for the future. These are the pillars of the network of UNU-GTP Fellows worldwide.
