1.2. Steering Committee meetings:  A total of three Steering committee meetings (KoM + 2 SC meetings) will take place. These meetings will be held to share updating and contents about the specific activities to be developed and will be relevant occasions to create a multidisciplinary, international team to drive the project development, ensuring the sharing of competences and skills among partners.

1.3. Administrative & financial management:  Administrative and financial management is led by the Project Manager (PM) of the BMoJ in coordination and cooperation with the internal administrator and financial staff and/or contact persons identified by each partner.
