One
of the major tasks facing the new BIO-EARN Programme is information dissemination and communication
with network partners and the outside world.
The
BIO-EARN Regional Coordination Office aims provide timely
information, which it will disseminate primarily through the
BIO-EARN website and its biannual Newsletter.
