Summary
This deliverable comes out of Task 5.1.[Lead: NIA+EWG, Support: Tomato, AEESTI/Ecsite+ 3rd prts, BfR, ZSI, PlayGen Studio HB, UnivLeeds, DPF]
The scope and nature of this project means that it will require a great amount of knowledge regarding:
• What audiences being communicated to about nanotechnologies need when being addressed (WP1),
• What novel communication and visualisation tools are suitable for engaging the chosen target audience(s) (WP2),
• The scientific content to be used in the novel visualisation tools (WP3), and
• How to gauge the impact those tools have when used in real-world scenarios (WP4).
The project will convene establish a number of strategic liaisons with individual stakeholders (such as large international companies, policy maker units, and the press office of the European Commission) and key stakeholder groups (such as industry associations, and technology networks); in order to properly address these stakeholders’ needs from an early stage of the project, the SeeingNano project has established an Expert Working Group (EWG), consisting of NIA Members that are themselves direct beneficiaries of the planned SeeingNano project output and that will play a pivotal role in the multiplication of the project impact: these NIA Members are engaged in the SeeingNano project through a Linked-3rd Party agreement, and will be brought in at strategic points to (a) provide concrete feedback on the project’s planned work and progress through feedback templates, (b) provide additional input (e.g. science content), and (c) use, promote and disseminate the SeeingNano output and thus act as a multiplier to its impact.
