practice.<br>
<br>
Description of work package tasks and deliverables:<br>
<br>
8.1 Exploitation, Dissemination and Communication Plan: This
task will consist of the elaboration of a detailed
exploitation, dissemination and communication plan. GIG will
be in charge of the dissemination and communication plan and
the exploitation plan will be led by the University of
Barcelona.<br>
<br>
8.2 Creation of the visual identity, website and social
media accounts: GIG will have prepared the logo, the website
of the project and established the social media accounts.
The website will include statistics records. During the

strategy and act as a community manager of CoAct! social
media accounts (Twitter, Instagram and Facebook).<br>
<br>
8.3 Creation of contents for dissemination and
communications: Contents and tools, such as project
brochures and flyers, videos and articles will be prepared.
Especially innovative contents and dissemination methods
such as microlearning videos, digital storytelling or
infographics made with sketching will be used. All these
materials will be distributed by the proper channels
described in the communication and dissemination section.<br>
<br>
8.4 Dissemination activities: The activities listed in the
dissemination plan (8.1) will be implemented. In particular,
the following innovative format/tools will be developed: 1)
Hackathons/Datathons 2) Satellites workshops in European and
international conferences 3) Practical demonstrations of
digital tools (digital platforms and chatbot) 4) Specific
capacity building events to present and launch the Open
Calls for Research Pilots<br>
<br>
8.5 Communication activities: The communication activities
will be implemented, according to the communication plan.
Innovative formats, such as a Public Exhibition in Vienna
(in relation to WP4) or the organization of public events to
fight against the stigma suffered by the persons with an
experience of mental health disorders (in relation to WP3)
will be prioritized. In line with the established media
strategy, GIG will ensure the quality of the materials to be
prepared for press releases and press conferences and
supervise media relations, in collaboration with the press
office of UB.<br>
<br>
8.6 Exploitation activities: This task will be led by the
University of Barcelona and will help different partners to
implement the actions defined in the Exploitation Plan. In
particular, the exploitation of training courses and of
genuine research strategies for policy impact will be
explored.<br>
<br>
8.7 Citizen Social Science Summer School for PhD students: A
one week Summer School for PhD students will be organized.
The participation of students coming from a wide range of
disciplines (not only Social Sciences), a wide range of
countries and a wide range of socioeconomic and cultural
backgrounds will be encouraged. This first of this kind
formal education action will also disseminate the Citizen
Social Science strong methodological transdisciplinary
framework established by the CoAct! Project. The summer
school will reinforce the Citizen Social Science community
building, with a special focus on sustainability as early
career researchers will be involved. The material used
during this summer school will be compiled in an Open
deliverable, with the aim to be used in PhD programmes from
diverse disciplines.<br>
<br>
8.8 Final conference preparation and realization: Toward the
end of the project, a final CoAct! conference will take
place, with the aim of disseminating the results of the
project to all the relevant stakeholders at an European

with mental health, youth unemployment, gender equality and
environmental actions will be invited to participate to a
Policy Forum. The civil society, in the form of bottom-up
associations, activists or NGOs will be another important
target. The co-researchers will act as co-presenters of the
conclusions, as competent experts in their fields. Moreover,
concrete outcomes of the project such as the Open Citizen
Science Toolkit.</font></font></p>
