To ensure that theory and concept are integrated
with empirical research and BES core, long-term data streams.

To involve all members of BES in the conceptual
and integrative structure of the project.
Agenda: Each topic will include a 10 minute
presentation by the topic leader, and 10 minutes for discussion by the whole
