Project activities

The project activities follow the Key Areas of Changes (KAC), which have been identified based on the detailed SWOT analyses. The KACs are then mirrored in the respective work packages, each of them dedicated to specific tasks and project objectives. The work packages are interconnected and some outputs of given WPs are used as inputs of the other ones.
