Management work package aims at ensuring effective and efficient management of all project activities, pursuing the project’s objectives according to the time schedule, budget and the quality standards established. It also aims at ensuring a regular cooperation with the EC services and an appropriate level of quality control on project activities and deliverables. With the work package on project management, HU coordinates the project and coaches the participants towards the stated aims in close collaboration with the project leader AUG.

Within this WP, the project management bodies will be set up and the project management procedures regulated also through a Project Management Handbook. A side from the Project Manager, who is directly appointed by HU and revised by AUG, this WP will define the components of the Assembly of Partners and of the Steering Committee. All project partner meetings are included in this WP
