Deliverable D7.5 - Report on dissemination to policymakers

The current Deliverable D7.5 “REPORT ON DISSEMINATION TO POLICYMAKERS” is produced in the context of Task 7.5 “External dissemination to policy-makers” of the e-SAFE project, which began in M13 and runs until M46. This report serves as a progress report, and will be updated in a second version in M46. The report provides an overview of the policy background against which e-SAFE began and, more broadly, the key policy events that directly shaped the policy narrative since the project kicked off. It then explains the different types of policy dissemination with an overview of the policy dissemination strategy that is suitable for e-SAFE, followed by a description of the policy dissemination strategy and outreach carried out to date, with a view to next steps and remaining work until the end of the project.
Task 7.5, which focuses on raising awareness of the e-SAFE project among key EU policymakers, benefits especially from work taking place particularly in WP2 on stakeholder engagement and WP6 on business models and financial schemes. This work is expected to intensify particularly from M30 of the project, which should feed content development for future policy outreach action towards policymakers.
