IASON project developments: Assessment of existing and on-going research efforts in the Mediterranean and Black Sea

The knowledge about existing networking and research initiatives in the Mediterranean and Black Sea regions is fundamental for achieving the IASON main goal of fostering sustainability and uptake of research results through networking activities. Since the objective is not just to provide a report about the situation at a given time, it was decided to setup a database of initiatives and stakeholders which can be maintained up-to-date throughout the duration of the project and possibly beyond. This would allow to carry out further analysis, identify gaps and needs, and design possible actions. The experience of the BalkanGeoNet Permanent Networking Facility was considered positive and it was decided to replicate and adapt it. An IASON Initiative and Stakeholders DB was then designed based on the BalkanGeoNet PNF database structure. It has been filled collecting information from relevant initiatives known to the project consortium. To this aim, an online questionnaire has been setup, and an invitation sent to the contact persons of the identified initiatives. In the next months, the Initiative and Stakeholders DB with data collected in this first phase will be provided with a Graphical User Interface to setup the IASON Permanent Networking Facility.
