2. 3 research studies into the wider application of the CP4BP approach within the target sectors

• Project start-up and initial training:

1. Country assessments to identify target sectors and products in the participating countries

2. Localization and integration of existing resources on D4S methodology as part of the CP concept (CP4BP approach)

3. Train-the-trainer workshop for technical service providers and industry representatives of the three countries (25 persons)
