Team proposed for realization of the Activity 3

• trans-national technical work groups both at an
  inter-partnership level and on a regional/local
  basis, with the help of external experts
• Task of the work groups
• to establish the first implementation/developme
  nt hypothesis, which must be subsequently
  assessed and discussed by the subjects of
  interest (ex. representatives of the production,
  public administrations, technicians, etc.) in the
  relevant focus group that will be realized both
  on an inter-regional and regional scale (at least
  1 focus group in each EAC and IAR area involved)
• to drawing up later the final versions of the
  guidelines/feasibility studies.
