Mangement of the MESH Project
Management of the day-to-day work and setting the strategic
and technical direction of the MESH project was undertaken through
two groups comprising representatives from all Project Partners. In
addition there was a Technical Group to discuss and
review the technical activities of the project.
JNCC (UK) as the lead partner was responsible to
INTERREG for the overall management of the MESH Project to ensure
it delivered the key products. A legally binding partnership
agreement known as the
MESH Joint Convention was signed by all partners to cover the
operation of the partnership.
JNCC established a Project Team comprising a full-time Project
Co-ordinator and a Project Administrator who were responsible
for the effective running of the project and day to day
co-ordination of partner activities. These staff provide the
overall management for the project and act as the main link with
the NWE INTERREG secretariat.
