Deliverables

Documents, reports (4)

Preliminary inventory of EU wetlands

In this deliverable the inventory of EU wetlands will be presented including the preliminary results, based on data that was collected up to M30.

Initial plan of REWET business models

This deliverable will contain the initial plan of REWET business models (BMs), based on previous wetlands successful BMs.

Business actors identification

This deliverable will contain the results of the identification of the business actors found in the REWET OLs.

Sustainability indicators

This deliverable will contain the sustainability indicators selected to measure the sustainability impact of wetlands, including the environmental, economic and social pillars.

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (7)

Third annual observatory event

This deliverable will be the third annual observatory event.

Project Website

This deliverable will be the REWET website containing the information about the consortium, WPs, expected results, objectives, etc.

"""Training of trainers"" workshop"

The “Training of trainers” workshop will be held in one of the OLs location in hybrid form with a consortium meeting. Key stakeholders in the wetlands sector will be invited to participate in the event. The consortium will share the lessons learnt so far. Key stakeholders will be invited to speak in the event.

Multi-Stakeholder Platform

This deliverable will be the project's Multi-Stakeholder Platform, an ad hoc online platform to ensure identification, engagement, inclusion and active participation of relevant stakeholders and their diverse perspectives (including the Quadruple Helix –Government, Industry, Academia and Civil Society- plus policy makers, relevant associations, and coordinators of other projects in the same topic).

First project video

This deliverable will be the first video of the REWET project, including the OLs, ongoing work, researchers and consortium.

Second annual observatory event

This deliverable will be the second annual observatory event.

First annual observatory event

This deliverable will be the first annual observatory event.
