UNITA sharing of infrastructures and Knowledge
Missing Sections & Actions:Review List of Activities.
| Task number | 3 |
|---|---|
| Name | UNITA sharing of infrastructures and Knowledge |

| List of activities | Actions to implement | Deadline |
|---|---|---|
| A4.3.1 Complete and update the mapping of partners infrastructures and related services developed by Re-UNITA | Complete the current mapping by integrating the new partners' infrastructures and services; verify the coherence and completeness of data through partner consultation. | 31/10/2024 |
| A4.3.2 Consolidate the model for sharing research infrastructures and services, based on a decentralized management and Open Data approaches | Finalize and validate a common model for sharing infrastructures across the alliance; ensure compliance with Open Science principles and decentralized access protocols. | 31/01/2025 |
| A4.3.3 Launch regular calls to co-finance access to infrastructures | Design and implement a mechanism for launching periodic calls enabling researchers from all partners to access shared infrastructures, with co-financing support. | 31/10/2027 |
| A4.3.4 Assess the necessary system modifications | Identify gaps or inefficiencies in the existing infrastructure sharing system through feedback analysis and performance evaluation. | 31/10/2026 |
| A4.3.5 Enhance the system by adapting necessary changes and intensifying the sharing of services and infrastructures | Implement system upgrades based on the assessments made; increase frequency and variety of shared services and infrastructures available to partners. | 31/10/2027 |

| Users / Beneficiaries Intern to UNITA | End-Users / Beneficiaries extern to UNITA | |
|---|---|---|
| 1) Who are the stakeholders benefiting of the task’s actions? | * Partners of UNITA * Students, researchers, technicians, teachers from UNITA partners |
* To check with the T5.1 list * To be defined in interview * GEMINAE partners |
| 2) To what extent has the local/international society changed as a result of outcomes compared to before UNITA? What are the long term results for them? | * To be defined in interview * More fruitful research projects and cooperation between partners * Shared infrastructure (internally at first) * Valorisation of the results from the ‘shared infrastructure network’ |
* To be defined in interview * These impact changes will be first internally but will be extended to our external partners (from GEMINAE for example) * The idea of shared infrastructures is to be shared within UNITA, the direct beneficiaries involve the UNITA members – it could be used for research or teaching purposes. |
