WP 16 - Project and data management
WP16 covers the coordination and management of the project as well as data management, internal communication between the different project members, but also external communication of ESM2025 activities.
The overall objective of WP16 is to ensure that the ESM2025 project reaches all its objectives and delivers high quality outcomes, by ensuring a smooth and successful project management and coordination. The aim is also to ensure and monitor the effective exploitation and dissemination of the project results, as well as the communication of the project activities to relevant audiences.
Institutions involved: Météo France – CNRM as the coordinating institution will be mainly in charge of WP16. However, as the communication activities of this WP are closely linked to the activities of WP14 and WP15, Météo France – CNRM collaborates closely with Imperial College London, the University of Leeds and the Office for Climate Education on many outreach activities.

In ESM2025, I am the Project Coordinator of ESM2025 and co-leader of CT4 and WP16 (Project and Data Management) with Anna Vermunt. I will also participate in the outreach and knowledge exchange activities of WP14 and WP15 which are key activities of the ESM2025 project. In between, as an Earth system scientist of the CNRM-Cerfacs modelling group, I will contribute to scientific activities of CT1, especially in land surface and in ocean/marine biogeochemistry work packages (WP2, WP3), and to the scientific activities of WP4 and 5, involving the coupled model CNRM-ESM.
