Project Activities

The general objective of “Project Management and Coordination” is to design an effective and efficient structural framework for all partners to ensure a proper accomplishment of all project-related goals and managing tasks. It encompasses the financial, administrative and contractual components including the risk monitoring and mitigation during the entire project period. 

Project quality management is all about the processes and activities needed to determine and achieve project quality, thus being a prerequisite for the successful implementation of the project idea and sustainability of project results. Quality management will be a central element carried out throughout the whole project duration encompassing the work under all project activities.

The dissemination concept involves all activities to strengthen the communication and dissemination between the partners and all activities directed to actually reach the target groups and final users of the project. Sharing results, lessons learned, outcomes and findings beyond the participating organizations will enable a wider community to benefit from StayWell innovative approach.
