  9. RAG Report - Overview • PP’s intend to ensure the outputs are well understood by having a well developed communication strategy and by disseminating the results of FRESH to the relevant stakeholders • Be careful to ensure that the RAG group does not fall into the trap of merely disseminating the FRESH project activities but instead takes a firm grasp on trying to make a policy impact
