This deliverable will contain an institutional, thematic, and methodological introduction; five parts devoted the specific clusters with their case-studies; a final part devoted to comparisons and conclusions

SMARTEES policy Sandbox IT tool and workshop concept

This deliverable is a software tool to run policy analyses. Two versions of the tool will be programmed: 1) a light version as a demonstration of the SMARTEES concept open to anyone visiting the SMARTEES website, 2) a pro version of the SMARTEES tool re-stricted to use in a workshop context. The light version will allow users to manipulate central parameters in policy scenarios within a predefined framework informed by WP5. This version gives a taste of the possibilities that lie in the SMARTEES methodology, the full potential and flexibility, however, cannot be unlocked without supplementing the web-tool with substantial input and guidance. Therefore, the pro version of the SMARTEES tool will be restricted to use in a workshop context.
