Cohesive delivery
WP8 ensures the successful implementation of BIOcean5D by guiding each work package towards a common goal: to understand how marine biodiversity changes across the 5 dimensions of space, time and human impact.
The WP8 team achieves this by offering technical, scientific, financial, and administrative management and assistance.
This includes coordinating the delivery of tasks, deliverables and milestones, tracking and reporting progress towards objectives, and managing risk. WP8 also handles the knowledge generated through BIOcean5D – such as exchanging findings with related projects and coordinating the publication of results.
Overall, this WP seeks to:
Optimise
the management and communications environment in which BIOcean5D is performed
Monitor and support
other work packages’ delivery on their objectives
Communicate and resolve
any issues that might arise, in a timely and effective manner
“It is a great privilege to have a consortium so inspired, and so knowledgeable across different disciplines. Our strength is in joining forces towards filling out the gaps in marine biodiversity, and making necessary steps toward ocean sustainability.”
