Executive Summary
DiBiCoo is a cooperation project that prepares markets in developing and emerging countries for the import of biogas/biomethane/gasification technology from European industries. Effective communication, dissemination and leveraging is an important activity for the project and an obligation of the Grant Agreement.
The project requires extensive collaboration among stakeholders across continents. Lead by iceaddis, it is the responsibility of all partners to utilize social media, online platforms (the DiBiCoo information system & website) and print media to maximize the impact and share results of the project thereby achieving set targets.
This Communication, Dissemination and Leveraging Guide outlines the rules and procedures on such activities. All consortium members are required to properly display the project logo and distribute flyers and posters to all stakeholders. The project website features project details and will be continuously updated with news from the consortium and project partners. Partners also provide input and coordinate stakeholders to be users of the online networking and matchmaking tool. Social media posts should be disseminated by consortium members, while relevant EU agencies and other related stakeholders will be tagged. All communication must acknowledge EU funding with the emblem and disclaimer according to the guidelines.
It is the responsibility of all partners to ensure proper communication and dissemination about project activities, results and deliverables. Prior to dissemination and leveraging of results, all research data generated from the project must be checked for sensitivity/confidentiality, data protection legislations and individual data protection. The EU requires all partners to disseminate results by appropriate means, including open access to research data and findings. However, each partner has the right to justifiably protect its data or leveraging of results until transfer of ownership.
The guide will be updated as the need arises.
