‘Phase 1’: April 2016 – Mar 2017 is divided equally into four semesters. These semesters are dedicated to interregional learning and to preparing the exploitation of the lessons learnt from the cooperation through the development of a policy action plan by each project partner.
‘Phase 2’: Mar 2017 – Feb 2019 is dedicated to monitoring the implementation of the proposed policy action plan. When relevant, pilot actions may also be tested during this phase.
