How to implement WP4
Questions which require clarification• ownership of mobile games (definition of game)
• why not using international groups
• web development must be simple (eg. Use Google drive to share/store docs)
• needs assessment from parks
• why having difference days for the 4 national partners (much less for HOS)
• possibility of sponsorship
• agree with the suggested locations?
• how to involve local NGOs?Oulanka NP © Paavo Hamunen
