CORDIS

The procedural guide is based on the D2.1 (analytical framework), and is a translation of the framework into a list of characteristics and into workable formats for building an online inventory. Project partners will be trained for collecting inventory data.

the analytical framework will capture the variables and characteristics, related to the structures and processes/function, of demonstration activities, that should be taken into account when developing a typology for selection of the case studies

Based on the draft version included in the DoA, a final but dynamic communication and networking plan is elaborated. This is a guiding and living document to support the coordination and synergies of all networking and communication activities of the different WPs, and identifies, according to the different objectives, the target groups, the type of interaction to be promoted and its outcomes, the channels and tools to be used. It also includes a post-project analysis, seeking for options for explotiation and/or continuitity of main results/producs after the end of the project.

The Data Management Plan contains a common procedure for assigning a name and reference number for all datasets generated in the project and providing a description of each dataset including how and when it was collected, its origin, its format (audio, textual, numerical) and data collection methods used. It specifies what parts of the dataset are in English, the national language, or both. The description also specifies whether the data underpins a publication and to whom the dataset could be useful. Data sharing is addressed, taking into consideration any ethical and data protection concerns, as well as how access to the data is organised (and what parts of the dataset may be public or restricted). The type of repositories used in the partner institutions are specified, as well as the procedures that will be put in place for long-term and safe preservation of the data.

Practice abstracts will contain all the outcomes/recommendations which are ready for practice, in the form of a short summary of around 1000-1500 characters, which describes a main information/recommendation/practice that can serve the end-users in their daily practice. Half of the total number of practice abstracts should be delivered at the end of the first reporting period (M18), the rest by end of the project at the very latest (M30). All will be deliverd in the Excel format on the EIP-AGRI website (http://ec.europa.eu/eip/agriculture/en/content/eip-agri-common-format).

The protocol describes which actors will be involved, how they will be involved and what kind of knowledge is needed from the different actors to optimally achieve the project objectives. Stakeholder analysis tools are used to identify actors and their stake, to differentiate and categorize actors into groups and to investigate relationships between them.

Dedicated channels of Facebook and/or Twitter are created and animated to profile the project and, especially, to empower the AgriDemo-Hub learning community. Another option is to have a dedicated YouTube account to post success sotires of the project, in the form of videos of best practices of demonstration farms across Europe.

Based on D2.2 (procedural guide) standardized data will be collected through an online tool. Each project partner will be responsible for a certain geographic zone.
