3.2Reporting session of the parallel technical Work sessions

Plenary session
The different chairs of the parallel technical session have reported to the others the key points of their discussions, especially what activities are planned on the next 18 months (months 25-42) to be incorporated in the future Year 2 Annual Report. See the referred reports above.

3.3introduction & discussion on a draft strategic plan of knowledge dissemination, as required under Wp4.

Plenary session
Chair: European coordination Assistant (Hespul, Raphaelle Gauthier)
Introduction on the rational (knowledge dissemination IN and OUTSIDE Renaissance ‘s communities to allow duplication) and the necessity of establishing a strategic plan of knowledge dissemination, amongst RENAISSANCE local consortiums, as required by the project.
PSG’s validation of leadership under WP4, as mentioned below:

WP4: Renaissance coordination
Leader : HESPUL
WP4 : Local coordination Leader (community level)
Lyon		Zaragoza			Milano
Hespul		Ayto Zaragoza			Lombardia (LOM)
SubWP4.1. Local Dissemination and Promotion				SubWP4.2. Common Dissemination Activities
Lyon	Zaragoza		Milano	Lyon	Zaragoza	Milano
Grand Lyon	Ayto Zaragoza		LOM	Hespul	Ayto Zaragoza	LOM

Hespul presented to the partners a document called “Draft frame for a strategic plan of knowledge dissemination”, based on the key provisions of the Annex 1 on the project. (See Annex)

As Year 1 did not allow working on this aspect of the project, this document should be treated as one of RENAISSANCE’s priorities these coming months
This “Draft frame” shows different tables related to exploitable knowledge, target groups, means of dissemination & strategies to disseminate. WP4 Renaissance experts should complete tables as soon as possible, since the completion of that document has been delayed, even if considered as key for the project.

Consequently, partners agreed that this item should be incorporated in the next agenda of the next PSG in Lyon (Fall 2007).

Lyon:

Grand Lyon; Béatrice Couturier

Due to the Year 1 confusion, the work to elaborate a local Dissemination plan has been delayed. However, since late spring 2007, Lyon has launched a new dynamic, with the communication services of Grand Lyon and SEM Confluence to define a clear strategy on communication.

This new local dynamic should also lead to the elaboration of Lyon Local Dissemination plan, for the coming months.

More generally, as there is not much funding under WP4, GL suggested to integrate Renaissance promotional activities in already existing and planned meetings (locally, nationally, internationally), in order to optimise its dissemination
Zaragoza:

Ayto. Zaragoza, Marisa Campillos & ECODES, Alicia Lafuente

The Zaragoza’s dissemination strategic plan has been already discussed several times amongst local experts. It has been validated and should actively be implemented in September.
SMRUZ, Juan Rubio del Val

International dissemination should be done by the European coordination (Hespul and Grand Lyon), whereas the local communities of the Project should treat local and national dissemination.

Beside Concerto Plus Communities, which are already well sensitized on sustainable Development & buildings issues, he suggested to better explode existing networks of cities (like Eurocities- or the city network on Climate change) to develop our international dissemination strategies.
Lombardia: Regione di Lombardia; Gabriele Boccasile

As now full member of the RENAISSANCE project, the Regione will take more actively part of that part of the dissemination. As such, they already thought of different types of dissemination to promote the project (professional fairs, big events as Solar Exhibition in September 2007, etc.).
