  5. Meetings of RT8 participants on a regular basis to discuss and adjust strategies within RT8 RT8 project website Timely approach to deliverables Representation of RT8 at ENSEMBLES management board meetings By month 3 Month 3 at the latest Tasks of WP8.0 (Management)

  6. Project-based web-sites, including members’ web sites and public web site ENSEMBLES publicity brochure, also available on-line Electronic newsletters Web-based discussion groups, to enable dialog between ENSEMBLES researchers and stakeholders/end-users Dissemination of information at a general level about climate change for the public understanding of science Month 3 Month 6 Regular basis Tasks of WP8.1

  7. Deliverables ENSEMBLES public web-site ENSEMBLES publicity material Targeted information sheets Prototype of Internet project « Public Understanding of Science » Milestones Assessment of the progress and quality of Internet based information WP8.1 Deliverables and Milestones

  8. Project publicity material Information sheets and briefing notes for various audiences Promotion of climate change issues to the corporate sector Publications of a policy-oriented nature for IPCC, UNFCCC, etc. Conference papers Coordination of peer-reviewed special journal edition with ENSEMBLES research As required As required Month 18, contribution to IPCC emission scenarios for Europe Aim for 2007 and 2008, in preparation of Workshop with stakeholder participation in 2009 Tasks of WP8.2

  14. Conclusion • RT8 is not a « stand-alone » component of ENSEMBLES!!! • Its success will depend upon the close interaction and collaboration with all other RTs and with the coordination center • In addition to what has been proposed for the contract, new ideas can be stimulated within ENSEMBLES and be communicated to RT8 for a broader dissemination • Additional Workshops and scientist exchange programs can be accommodated by RT8 at the request of ENSEMBLES members • ...
