Communication plan

The external communication and dissemination plan aims at precising the type of activities and variety of audiences to maximize the promotion of ICARUS and its impact. This plan identifies the information needs of the specific project stakeholders and determines
channels for tailored, target-specific communications and dissemination activities. In accordance with the glossary of terms “communication” and “dissemination” available on the EC Europa Website, this plan contains:
* Appropriate means to publicly disclose the results - other than protecting or exploiting them. e.g., scientific publications (dissemination)
* Strategic and targeted measures to communicate about the action and its results to a multitude of audiences, including the media and the public and possibly engaging in a two-way exchange (communication).

Thus, the external communication and dissemination plan consists of a strategic plan for the use and dissemination of results of the ICARUS project. Results refer to any tangible or intangible output of the action, such as data, knowledge and information whatever their form or nature. It is structured in two parts:
* Description of the dissemination procedure
* Presentation of the communication plan
This plan ensures that ICARUS partners will provide the knowledge gained during the project’s lifetime in the right format, at the right time and with the right impact.
