Promoting awareness on MFC and its ecological & economic importance
WG4 involved all types of participants in the network (MFC scientists, modellers and stakeholders). This cross-cutting WG was responsible for promoting the transfer of the knowledge gained over the course of the Action to a wide audience, including scientists, stakeholders, end-users and the wider public.
​
Therefore, WG4 played a key role in promoting global awareness on MFC's ecological and economic importance and the implementation of MFC in decision-making processes for management and policy.
​
Its main tasks were to:
​
​
1. Help the Action chair to launch the Action’s website and supervise its implementation
​
2. Organize the Action's Kick-off and Final Dissemination events
Issue regular press releases about the Action's activities/outcomes
​
3. Communicate about the Action on social media
​
4. Oversee and assist all communication and dissemination activities planned in the other WGs, including the production of educational and promotional materials.
