Das Projekt "Handbuch Oekologie und Oekotechnik in der Maedchenarbeit" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von LIFE - Bildung, Umwelt, Chancengleichheit e.V. - Frauen entwickeln Ökotechnik durchgeführt. Es werden Vorhaben in Deutschland mit Lehr- und Lernangeboten im Bereich 'Umweltbildung und Frauen' in Form eines Handbuchs bilanziert. Durchfuehrung einer Fachtagung zur Dissemination. Ziel ist eine mit Anwendungsvorschlaegen versehene Bestandsaufnahme.
Das Projekt "Organising dissemination on results of projects on chemical evaluation, spreading techniques for risk assessment (ORCHESTRA)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche Mario Negri durchgeführt. Objective: The project ORCHESTRA has the main aim to disseminate and exploit the European research activities dealing with computer models for the environment. These models have a huge potentiality for dissemination, for their nature, based on information technologies. This area is multidisciplinary, because it deals with environmental science, health, chemistry and information technology. The general impact of information technology is proceeding in an exponential way. Specific use is often limited by a poor knowledge about the availability of suitable tools, cultural scepticism, and lack of training. We will address the strategies for a broad, systematic dissemination and exploitation of the research results of a number of EU projects. Specific dissemination and exploitation measures will be identified for the different stakeholders, including regulators, industry, citizens, international bodies, scientific and other associations. Dissemination towards regulators of all EU member and associated states will be provided. We will also address industry, with special attention to SME, which may gain from the software we are dealing with. We will communicate to citizens, their associations, scientists and other publics with different tools. In the consortium we have representatives of all major stakeholders involved, and a number of partners expert in efficient communication strategies. A sustainable strategy will result from the project. The software products from the different projects will be organised in a web-based system open to the public for continuous access and promotion. Links with other initiatives will exploit results at the regulatory level and in the information technology community, making results living and evolving. The mathematic approach we will disseminate will be also useful to generate simple indicators of regulation impact. ORCHESTRA will promote a repository of software and databases, suitable for updated information on European research on chemicals.
Das Projekt "Cultural heritage research meets practice (CHRESP)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Narodna in Univerzitetna Knjiznica durchgeführt. Objective: Organization of the 8th EC Conference on Cultural Heritage Research in Ljubljana in 2008 is proposed. Its main objectives are in accordance with the ones addressed in the Call: to foster exploitation and spin off of EU research results, through the demonstration of new technologies, tools and devices developed by the SMEs and industry in close cooperation with the scientists and for the benefit of the end-users, conservators and restorers, managers and owners of the cultural patrimony. The objectives will be reached by the oral presentations, posters, demonstration activities and training workshops, focusing on the presentation of the research results relating to the movable and immovable cultural heritage, landscapes and archaeology, policy impact assessment, technology and knowledge transfer, including education and life-long learning in the field of cultural heritage. Special attention will be devoted to the integration of the EC funded research with the other supporting schemes, in particular COST and Eureka, as well as pooling of expertise of the key players in the field, such as ECTP-FACH, ICOM-CC, ICOMOS, EUROPA NOSTRA, and others.
