D7.2 (the first draft of the Report on Communication and Dissemination Activities) provides a comprehensive overview of the communication strategies, materials, actions, dissemination efforts, stakeholder engagements, and online outreach undertaken throughout the first year of the NENUPHAR project. The report delves into the formulation and implementation of the Communication Strategy, which has been rolled out in accordance with the project’s Communication, Dissemination and Exploitation Plan (D7.1). It further showcases the development of Communication Materials such as brochures, posters, roll-ups, PowerPoint presentations, and infographics aimed at effectively conveying project objectives and outcomes to the specific target groups identified in the Communication, Dissemination and Exploitation Plan. Communication and Dissemination Actions are thoroughly detailed, encompassing articles, interviews, project videos, and participation in a wide array of events held across Europe. Additionally, dissemination efforts in the form of scientific publications, participation and organisation of scientific, training and educational events, and the creation of other outcome materials are included. Stakeholder engagement, which aims to foster collaboration and knowledge-sharing among key stakeholders, is briefly introduced and the different forms it has thus far taken in the project, i.e. value chain workshops, end-user engagement events and replication workshops, are presented. Furthermore, the report delves into the realm of Online Outreach, highlighting the pivotal role of the project website, Social Media channels, newsletters, and other tools in facilitating communication, engagement, and dissemination activities since the launch of the project.
