Work packages
Work Packages (WPs) in the d@rts project represent thematic areas that group specific tasks and objectives to address distinct aspects of the project. They include analyzing cultural literacy and social cohesion, developing and piloting innovative education actions, creating digital tools for community engagement, providing policy recommendations, and ensuring effective dissemination and exploitation of results. Each WP is led by designated partners, with collaboration across the consortium.
