• A set of communication and dissemination rules to be used among the consortium, associated with the initial and revised plans,
• A project newsletter for press and stakeholders that will summarize STARLight project results at the end of each year of the project, a first newsletter will be proposed few months after the project kick-off (M6) with project presentation and objectives,
