Star

Executive Briefings are short position papers that distil the key messages of the STAR research results for special events or provide input /advice to specific audiences.

The Briefings may be based on one or more Issue Report results: they may, for example, compare results or underline consequences arising from identified trends. In this way, Executive Briefings complement the role of the Annual Report summarising all STAR results, by allowing further elaboration, targeted communication and dissemination of key messages.

Executive Briefings may also result from requests by the Commission to the partners for input on issues that fall within the STAR project scope and the partners' competencies.
