From 13 to 14 October 2025, the COMPASS project partners gathered in the city of Chania, Crete, for the 3rd General Assembly. The two-day meeting, hosted by SEVEN, provided an opportunity to review progress, align on next steps, and strengthen collaboration across the consortium.

The assembly opened with a project status update presented and development in the fields of attribution by the coordinator, Sanne Muis. This was followed by detailed progress reports from the work package leaders, showcasing achievements, ongoing activities, and plans for the coming year. In the afternoon, Patricia de Rosnay from ECMWF introduced the work being carried out in our sister project, CERISE. After that we discussed the selection of extreme weather events for the second set of use cases, led by Christopher Jack from the Red Cross Climate Centres. This session marked a major milestone in shaping the next phase of the project. A major milestone for the project was also reached with Pawel Terefenko from University of Szczecin, presenting the first version of the web-based demonstrator. This tool will play a central role in presenting our use cases to the public.

The second day focused on dissemination plans for the final year of the project, including outreach activities. Partners also engaged in more detailed discussions on the second set of use cases. The assembly completed with a session on financials, planning, and expectations for the months ahead and a discussion on a joint publication.
