3. IMPLEMENTATION
Fill in only sections 3.1 and 3.3 at stage 1 (concept note). Fill in all sections at stage 2 (full proposal).
3.1. Work plan
Work plan 
Provide a brief description of the overall structure of the work plan, together with a graphical presentation of the components showing how they inter-relate (Pert chart or similar).
Consider dividing your project into phases, each one lasting at least 3 years (strongly recommended to reduce the administrative burden). Remember that project monitoring and interim payments are linked to completed phases of the project.
Present the work done by phase. The reader should get a general idea of the chronology of work packages and their main activities. 
A work package (WP) means a major sub-division of the project. The number of work packages should be proportionate to the scale and complexity of the project. WP1 should cover the project management and coordination activities. WP2 (and further WPs) should be used for the other project activities. You can foresee as many work packages as needed.
The work packages should be designed in a way to follow the progress in the implementation of the targeted plan/strategy/action plan (biunivocal linkages as far as possible between work packages and plan/strategy/action plan components/pillars). 
Fill in the the Implementation overview for the targeted plan/strategy/action plan (annex). You may adapt the table, as long as it gives the overall picture on how the plan/strategy/action plan will be implemented.

3.2 Work packages and activities (n/a for concept note)
WORK PACKAGES (n/a for concept note)	
Work packages
This section concerns a detailed description of the project activities in work the work packages. 
For each work package, enter an objective (expected outcome) and list the activities, milestones and deliverables that belong to it. The grouping should be logical and guided by identifiable outputs. 
The number of work packages should be proportionate to the scale and complexity of the project. WP1 should cover the project management and coordination activities (meetings, coordination, project monitoring and evaluation, financial management, progress reports, etc) and all the activities which are cross-cutting and therefore difficult to assign to just one specific work package (do not try splitting these activities across different work packages). WP2 (and further WPs) should be used for the other project activities. You can create as many work packages as needed by copying the structure of WP1.
Each WP should describe the tasks for each phase of the project. For the first phase of the project tasks should be described in detail. Tasks in later phases of your project may include fewer details, but overall you still need to demonstrate how the WP objectives will be achieved through the implementation of all phases. You will be able to add additional information through amendments.
Include in addition 2 mandatory work packages:
•	Sustainability, replication and exploitation of project results. 
•	only for Strategic Integrated Projects (SIP ENV & SIP CLIMA): Complementary funds monitoring, coordination and mobilisation
•	only for Strategic Nature Projects (SNAP): Complementary funds monitoring, coordination and mobilisation, and mainstreaming with other policies (see Call Document)
In addition, ensure that your work packages cover also the following activities: 
•	dissemination and communication, including networking with other LIFE projects
•	impact monitoring and evaluation
•	reporting of (estimated and actually achieved) key performance indicators (KPIs) in the LIFE KPI web tool within the first 9 months from grant signature, at mid-term and at the end of the project
Work packages covering financial support to third parties ( only allowed if authorised in the Call document) must describe the conditions for implementing the support (for grants: max amounts per third party; criteria for calculating the exact amounts, types of activity that qualify (closed list), persons/categories of persons to be supported and criteria and procedures for giving support; for prizes: eligibility and award criteria, amount of the prize and payment arrangements). 
Mandatory deliverables:
•	dedicated project page on beneficiary’s own website
•	capacity building plan
•	After-LIFE Plan
•	extract of the project data from the LIFE KPI webtool (month 9,mid-term and end of the project (n/a for Clean Energy Transition)
•	in case of land purchase, include digital copies of the land register (with ‘conservation clause’)
 Enter each activity/milestone/output/outcome/deliverable only once (under one work package).
 Ensure consistency with the detailed budget table/calculator (if applicable). (n/a for prefixed Lump Sum Grants)	
Objectives and results
List the specific objectives to which the work package is linked and expected results.	
Activities and division of work (WP description)
Provide a concise overview of the work (planned tasks). Be specific and give a short name and number for each task. The tasks should be numbered continuously, linked to the WP they relate to (e.g. T.1.1, T.1.2, T.2.1, etc.).
Show who is participating in each task: Coordinator (COO), Beneficiaries (BEN), Affiliated Entities (AE), Associated Partners (AP), indicating in bold the task leader. 
Add information on other participants’ involvement in the project e.g. subcontractors, in-kind contributions. 
Note: 
The Coordinator remains fully responsible for the coordination tasks, even if they are delegated to someone else. Coordinator tasks cannot be subcontracted.	
Milestones and deliverables (outputs/outcomes)
Milestones are control points in the project that help to chart progress (e.g. completion of a key deliverable allowing the next phase of the work to begin). Use them for major outputs or achievements expected during the project time, and not only at the end.  Please limit the number of milestones by work package.
Means of verification are how you intend to prove that a milestone has been reached. If appropriate, you can also refer to indicators.
Milestones have a continuous numbering not linked to their WP (e.g. MS1, MS2, etc).
Deliverables are project outputs which are submitted to show project progress (any format). Refer only to major outputs. Do not include minor sub-items, internal working papers, meeting minutes, etc. 
For deliverables such as meetings, events, seminars, trainings, workshops, webinars, conferences, etc., enter each deliverable separately and provide the following in the 'Description' field: invitation, agenda, signed presence list, target group, number of estimated participants, duration of the event, report of the event, training material package, presentations, evaluation report, feedback questionnaire. 
For deliverables such as manuals, toolkits, guides, reports, leaflets, brochures, training materials etc., add in the ‘Description’ field: format (electronic or printed), language(s), approximate number of pages and estimated number of copies of publications (if any). 
Deliverables a continuous numbering linked to their WP, (e.g. D1.1 in WP1, D2.1 in WP2, etc).
For each deliverable you will have to indicate a due month by when you commit to upload it in the Portal. The due month of the deliverable cannot be outside the duration of the work package and must be in line with the timeline provided below. Month 1 marks the start of the project and all deadlines should be related to this starting date.
The labels used mean:
Public — fully open ( automatically posted online on the Project Results platforms)
Sensitive — limited under the conditions of the Grant Agreement
EU classified — RESTREINT-UE/EU-RESTRICTED, CONFIDENTIEL-UE/EU-CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET-UE/EU-SECRET under Decision 2015/444. For items classified under other rules (e.g. national or international organisation), please select the equivalent EU classification level.
