Communication plan All projects must make a communication plan. The contents of the plan depends on the project. What is interesting in your project from the citizens’ point of view? How does your project influence on citizens? What do you want to tell about the project’s activities, achievements and results?
Communication The European Commission and the National Auhorities use to ask the MA: “Do you have some project examples to present – a project that has made good presentations / materials / photos of themselves – to be presented in our publication / conference? “How are the citizens benefiting from this project?” -> Possibilities for you to get visibility and show what you can do!
