Deliverables

Documents, reports (6)

Guidelines for the development of the Think Tanks and Soil Network of Knowledge Strategy

This deliverable will include a detailed plan for the implementation and development (through time) of the different Think Tanks. When (and if) relevant, this plan will also include differentiated strategies for particular Think Tanks that, because of the topic or target group, require specific measures. This deliverable will also focus on establishing a plan for the engagement and buildup of the Soil Network of Knowledge including a plan to engage with the main target groups and how this should be coordinated across WP and activities.

Plan for Exploitation and Dissemination of Results 2

Version 2 (updated) of the Plan for Exploitation and Dissemination of Results with a specific focus on the dissemination activities and how they are meeting the proposed targets.

Summary of the typology and regional differentiation of key drivers of soil health across sectors

Summary of the typology and regional differentiation of key drivers of soil health across sectors. This summary will be based on the Milestone reports for the typology and regional differentiation of key drivers of soil health for agriculture (MS4), forests (MS5), Urban areas (MS6) and other natural areas (MS7).

Plan for Exploitation and Dissemination of Results 1

Plan for Exploitation and Dissemination of Results including a communication plan with the main communication messages, tools, channels and approaches to communicate on SOLO and its results in the most efficient manner to specific target audiences

Basis for the implementation of an Operational framework and minimum set of KPIs to monitor the Mission R&D activities

D5.1 will describe the basic elements and pathways for the implementation of an Operational framework and KPIs to monitor the Soil Mission R&I priorities. This will also include the identification of a minimum set of R&I KPIs that can be tracked from early on.

Soil Mission Research & Innovation Roadmaps: a synthesis across Mission objectives

This Deliverable will include a synthesis of the roadmaps prepared by each Think Tank and include an overview of major recent and ongoing R&I projects and their results in relation to the specific mission objectives. The overview will consider projects funded by the EU, as well as, where possible, at the level of Member States and Associated Countries. Major international initiatives will also be taken into account.

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

SOLO Platform, project website and social media profiles

This Deliverable includes the description of the main functionalities and existing operations with regard to the SOLO Platform. It also includes a description of the main contents of the project website and the overall approach to Social media.
