D2.3 Clustering with sister projects: outcomes and lessons learnt

This deliverable reports about the outcomes and lessons learnt from the many activities carried out in the first two years of the project with i) the sister project NOVAFERT, funded under the same HORIZON-CL6-2021-ZEROPOLLUTION-01-09 topic as FER-PLAY, and ii) other fellow projects which scope is aligned to FER-PLAY’s one and which results are relevant to our project development. This report is a sequel of D2.4 “Clustering with sister projects: first outcomes”, where we expose our strategy to map fellow projects, identify collaboration opportunities and the first outcomes of these activities. The FER-PLAY coordination Team created a protocol that allowed to identify 74 fellow and sister projects, and carry out a total of 79 clustering actions: 31 with NOVAFERT (sister project) and 48 with the fellow projects. Moreover, we currently foresee at least other 12 clustering activities from September 2024 to February 2025 (end of the project): 6 with NOVAFERT and 6 with the fellow projects. These activities with fellow and sister projects span from mutually disseminating projects’ results, surveys and announcements of events, to the participation in each other’s surveys, open days, workshops, advisory boards, working groups and general assembly meetings.
