Overview

Background & policy context:

The POSITION project was established thanks to extreme diversity of European positioning projects.

Objectives:

The main objective of POSITION was to create synergy between European projects dealing with positioning and to promote awareness and exploitation of their results to a wider European audience.

Methodology:

With that perspective, all the European projects dealing with positioning were identified and those that might best benefit from receiving support from POSITION were selected. Projects' needs were elicited by means of telephone conversations and meetings with project coordinators. The selection process performed in the context of WP 1.2 "Selection" has resulted in the:

  • Selection of 14 ongoing projects corresponding to the projects that should receive direct support from POSITION,
  • Classification of the completed, or well-advanced, positioning-related projects, according to their estimated ability to support the top-14 projects.

The selection took into account the resources available within POSITION. It guaranteed that the tasks to be carried out in the next phases of the project remain manageable and realistic. The next step in the selection process was to reach agreement with the European Commission on this selection in order to stabilise the working basis for the future POSITION activities.
