This WP aims to develop financial and technical annual reports and conduct project management and coordination, and will be led by UBB, the coordinating institution. UBB and the Management Committee are the main structures to implement the management of the project. The management committee will consist of one member from each of the partner institutions, further referred as institutional coordinators. 

Partners will be encouraged to initiate online meetings whenever they are facing a problem or need additional information or support. The minutes of the meetings will include the agenda and management decisions. Also, this WP will ensure the development of technical and financial reports, delivered at the end of each year of the project (M13, M25, and M36). The coordinator will offer support for the partner institutions when completing the reports. The decision making-process within the project will be taken on a majority of votes. In the situations in which agreement cannot be reached, the decision will be taken by the PI, and in major issues, in consultation with Erasmus+ officers.
