Planned dissemination

The project promotion and dissemination shall be mainly achieved through this website, a series of print products (newsletters and leaflets), a chain of regional workshops and a final conference.  Additional impacts shall be secured through attending thematic relevant conferences and reaching the public through different media groups and companies.

We have designed this website in English, German and Russian assuming that these three languages are most common in the countries where the ENRI-East project is implemented.

At the same time we took the convenience decision that the official working language of the project be English. This means in particular that most project deliverables shall be produced and published in English. Another linguistic implication would be the “consecutive” mode of translations: German and Russian web-updates shall be accomplished with certain delays.

The main objectives of the dissemination process is

  • to inform the wider audiences of interested parties (thematic stakeholders) about the project, namely about the research design and its scope, as well as about the project results and outcomes.
  • to discuss preliminary project results with regional experts during the four regional workshops and wider audiences of national and international experts during the final open conference.

The following target groups shall be approached for the purposes of dissemination of project intermediate and final outcomes:

  • Academic communities from European universities and research institutes
  • Governmental officials at the national, provincial and municipal levels in the four main regions of the project
  • NGO communities and European as well as regional, national and local mass media

The main dissemination and discussion instruments of the project are:

  • ENRI-East web-site (www.enri-east.net), as a main communication platform and primary dissemination channel for the project;
  • Project leaflets (two or three multilingual issues), up to three issues of Project Newsletter, two project posters;
  • A series of regional workshops (for experts and stakeholders) in the four main regions of the project is planned for the Autumn/Winter season 2010;
  • Final open international conference in Vienna in Winter 2011 as a main concluding event.

In addition to that, the UK-Oxford partner organizes a presentation to the European Cultural Parliament, Council of Europe, European Youth Foundation, European NGOs and European media.
