KEY ACTORS and TARGET AUDIENCE

In terms of the present Erasmus+ Programme, the target groups are both internal and external. Internal target audiences are:

1. IN1 - Teaching staff of all faculties to be actively involved in the teaching activities, in consideration of integrated planning and design methods in their teaching.
2. IN2 - Registered students who actively join the activities. Their feedback will be useful for improving the didactic methodology.
3. IN3 - University principals, deans/international coordinators/e-teaching staff/centres for academic instruction - to be informed about the developments at all stages of the project, about the module’s methods and structure in order to enhance transfer of good-practise within the institution.

External target audiences (outside the organisations) are:

1. OUT1 - National/international teachers from various domains. Motive: raise awareness for the theme, enhance curricular development, support continuing education in the field of ICT-based instruction/learning.
2. OUT2 - National/international learners from various domains. Motive: encourage their participation in the online parts of the course in order to enhance the development of knowledge and skills.
3. OUT3 - The wider general public. Motive: enhance public discourse on integrated planning and design for coastal landscapes and the urban-land interface, encourage participation in open access learning activities.
4. OUT4 - Local and regional authorities: enhance public discourse on integrated planning and design for coastal landscapes and the urban-land interface as relevant driving force for environmental protection, social cohesion and sustainable growth.

Other important target networks are: ECLAS (the European Council of Landscape Architecture Schools), AESOP (the Association of European Schools of Planning), IFLA-Europe (the European branch of the International Federation of Landscape Architects) and, of course, the project partner ISOCARP (the International Society of City and Regional Planners), which has a wide outreach.
