The strategy is a framework to enable project members to promote eLTER and its outputs, to engage with stakeholders over relevant issues and to help eLTER to best meet user needs. 3. Whilst this strategy will be implemented in the context of the eLTER project, and therefore the main focus will be on the activities and outputs of that project, some communication will also concern the broader LTER-Europe network and the European Critical Zone Observatories community.

Communication strategies is a book about the verbal and non-verbal ways and means that speakers and listeners employ in oral interaction in a second or foreign language (L2), when they have to face problems due to their lack or insufficient knowledge of the linguistic, communicative and cultural codes of the L2.

  • Overview Outputs of This Training Module Course Materials
    Module 3 & 7: Developing an impact strategy and creating communication out put of the IEA ( DRAFT) Overview This module will focus on methods to position and deliver a national IEA fi ndings and recommendation and creating communication of it. This can have real impact on environmental policy and practice at a series of levels, ranging from local to national. Why bother with developing an impact strategy and creating communication of the IEA outputs? Each day the general people and decision-makers get numerous text information. This involves times to read out of 24 hours of his day. Simply providing yet another report to your senior bureaucrats and political leaders won’t be enough to ensure that they read your fi ndings, let alone act upon them. Before you start producing your main report and other products, you need to make a series of important decisions. By identifying your target audience(s), you will be better able to shape your message and select the right content, and later, the right presentation format. By carefully considering our budget, you will be better and more able to make realistic decisions about the kind of product you feel will be most benefi cial. You will have to decide what kinds of information products best suit your message. We want to take you through the steps that will help you determine how to engage the right people to listen to you and respond to your work. This impact process takes time; and involves a real emphasis on being clear and strategic in identifying the changes that you want to see as a result of your assessment and how well the fi ndings can be communicated.
