Communication, Dissemination and Outreach Plan

The plan describes the planned measures to maximize the impact ofthe project, including the dissemination and exploitation measures that are planned,and the target group(s) addressed. Regarding communication measures and publicengagement strategy, the aim is to inform and reach out to society and show theactivities performed, and the use and the benefits the project will have for citizens.

Career Development Plan

A Career Development Plan will be established jointly by thesupervisor(s) and the researcher. In addition to research objectives, this plan willcomprise the researcher's training and career needs, including training ontransferable skills, teaching, planning for publications and participation inconferences and events aiming at opening science and research to citizens. The Plancan be updated when needed.

Data Management Plan (1)

Data Management Plan

The Data Management Plan describes the data management life cyclefor all data sets that will be collected, processed or generated by the action. It is adocument describing what data will be collected, processed or generated andfollowing what methodology and standards, whether and how this data will beshared and/or made open, and how it will be curated and preserved.
