 Identify and describe in detail each activity (or work package) to be undertaken to produce results,
justifying the choice of activities and specifying the role of each co-applicant and affiliated entity
(and associates or contractors or recipients of financial support where applicable) in the activities.
Do not repeat the action plan to be provided in section 2.1.3, but demonstrate coherence and
consistency of project design. In particular, list any publications proposed.
 If financial support is allowed by the guidelines for applicants, applicants wishing to give financial
support to third parties must define, in line with the conditions set by the guidelines for applicants

15 Janury 2016 Page 14 of 47

664557905.doc
  the attitudes of all stakeholders towards the action in general and the activities in particular;
 the planned activities in order to ensure the visibility of the action and the contribution of the
EU to its funding.

2.1.3. Indicative action plan for implementing the action (max 4 pages)
Applicants should not give a specific start-up date for the implementation of the action but simply
refer to ‘month 1’, ‘month 2’, etc.
It is recommended to base the estimated duration of each activity and the total period on the most
probable duration and not on the shortest possible duration, by taking into consideration all relevant
factors that may affect the implementation timetable.
The activities stated in the action plan should match those described in detail in section 2.1.1. The
implementing body must be either the lead applicant, co-applicant(s) or any of the affiliated
entity(ies), associates or contractors. Any months or interim periods without activities must be
included in the action plan and count toward the calculation of the total estimated duration of the
action.
The action plan for the first 12 months of implementation should be sufficiently detailed to give an
overview of the preparation and implementation of each activity. The action plan for each of the
subsequent years may be more general and should only list the main activities proposed for those
years. To this end, it must be divided into six-month periods (NB: A more detailed action plan for each
subsequent year must be submitted before any new pre-financing payments are received under
Article 4.1 of the Special Conditions of the grant contract).
The action plan will be drawn up using the following format:
Year 1
Half-year 1 Half-year 2
Activity Month 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Implementing body

2.1.4. Sustainability of the action (max 3 pages)
Provide all the information requested below:
 Describe the expected impact of the action with quantified data where possible, at technical,
economic, social, and policy levels (will it lead to improved legislation, codes of conduct,
methods, etc.?).
 Describe a dissemination plan and the possibilities for replication and extension of the action
outcomes (multiplier effects), clearly indicating any intended dissemination channel.
 Provide a detailed risk analysis and contingency plan. This should include a list of risks associated
with each proposed action, accompanied by relevant mitigation measures. A good risk analysis
will include a range of risk types including physical, environmental, political, economic and social
risks.
 Describe the main preconditions and assumptions during and after the implementation phase.
 Explain how the action will be made sustainable after completion. This may include necessary
follow-up activities, built-in strategies, ownership, communication plan, etc. Distinguish between
four types of sustainability:
a. Financial sustainability: e.g. financing of follow-up activities, sources of revenue for
covering all future operating and maintenance costs.
b. Institutional sustainability: e.g. structures that would allow the results of the action to
continue to be in place after the end of the action, capacity building, agreements and local
‘ownership’ of action outcomes.
c. Policy level sustainability: e.g., where applicable, structural impact (improved legislation,
consistency with existing frameworks, codes of conduct, or methods).
d. Environmental sustainability: what impact will the action have on the environment — have
conditions been put in place to avoid negative effects on the natural resources on which the
action depends and on the broader natural environment?
