The background for this document is to be found in the Art. 38.1 of the Grant Agreement Communication activities by beneficiaries: „The beneficiaries must promote the action and its results, by providing targeted information to multiple audiences (including the media and the public) in a strategic and effective manner“. The Media and Communication plan represents the project strategy for: Communicating the results of our research to a number of audiences we have identified in the document and with an adequate number and choice of communication tools Promoting the project and its results beyond the project‘s own community Promoting interaction with selected audiences The Plan also indicates 1) which audiences we target and 2) which communication measures are adopted to open a dialogue with these audiences. A special section of the MCP is also dedicated to communication tools adopted within the consortium to ensure internal information flow and exchange and thus foster a smooth and integrated implementation of the activities described in the Description of the Action.Contacts: esiwace@dkrz.de Visit us on: www.esiwace.eu Follow us on Twitter: @esiwac
