Overview: |
Project management and coordination is the task of the Programme Management Office (PMO) which will be composed of the project director (PMO head), the project coordinator and the secretariat. The PMO will be responsible for the centralized and coordinated management and the day-to-day running of the project. It will oversee the financial administration and the reporting to the European Commission, ensure adequate synchronization of the work packages and associated methodologies, smooth communication among work package leaders and partners, and communicate project findings to relevant stakeholders, policy makers and the European Commission. The main outputs of the PMO will be a project website and e-newsletters, progress reports to the EU, a communication plan, and two workshops (kick off, methodology), audiovisual material, and a midterm-review report. |
