What is the dissemination plan? It explains how the project will share outcomes with stakeholders, relevant institutions and organisations, and how it will contribute to the overall dissemination strategy for the programme. 

The purpose of the dissemination activity may be to:

• Raise awareness – let others know what you are doing
• Inform – educate the community
• Engage – get input/feedback from the community
• Promote – ‘sell’ your outputs and results

Also you will be asked to participate in programme and cluster dissemination activities as these can have more impact than those at project-level and be more cost effective. Contribute your ideas on collaboration and participate in the activities that are planned.
