By bringing in professional experience and real-world insight, it helps ensure that the project’s activities and results remain relevant, credible, and aligned with European priorities.
The committee plays a consultative role and does not take part in the day-to-day management of the project. Its contribution strengthens the project’s impact, sustainability, and overall quality.
