Management Committee
The Management Committee (MC) represents the participating countries in decisions on the Action. It monitors achievements of the Working Groups and decides on actions to take from the research results, both scientifically and for potential economic applications. The MC updates network participants on its decisions through the website and regular email updates. The MC reports to the COST Office once a year.
