Description:

WP8 contains specific activities related to dissemination and coordination contributing to O3, O4 and O5, under the leadership of UCv. WP8 is initiated at project start with a first key task, T8.1, which unfolds in the first six months of the project and produce a detailed dissemination plan setting objectives, key messaging, target audience, communication channels, social media plan and relevant indicators for monitoring and evaluation, indicators which will also measure the success of WP6. A second task, T8.2, oversees the development of communication materials including the project website, visual media, webinars, info-graphics, fliers, etc. which will also be distributed at events organized in WP6.

Finally, a third task, T8.3, is focused on dissemination of all project results obtained, including but not limited to deliverables, subject to relevant restrictions due to protection of IP, security rules or legitimate interests. While WP8 provides a monitoring function to WP6, WP8 also provides internal monitoring for itself based on the key deliverable detailed dissemination and communication plan, as aided by feedback gathered at the events in WP6, with the control function being provided by WP1. As all project results will be disseminated and communicated, WP8 finalisation happens at the end of the project, producing a critical path associated with dissemination and communication of results.
