Assessment framework. The goal with monitoring is to ensure a high-quality dissemination strategy implementation. This will be performed on a continuous basis to ensure an effective impact assessment and the consortium’s ability to react on time to maximise impact. Planification of dissemination activities Revisions and updates to the Dissemination Plan Implementation of dissemination activities Review of impact All partners must register the activities in the Dissemination log (see Annex) and save evidence of the activities conducted. This will enable the consortium to assess which activities have the biggest impact both in quantitative and qualitative terms. Conclusions derived from the dissemination log will be added to the dissemination plan updates.
Assessment framework. The proposed assessment framework examines and scores each of the ten enabling factors through two different, but inter-related lenses. The first lens assesses the Capacity of a city to have a favourable assessment against each of the enabling factors described in Section 2.1, and includes both circumstances outside its control, and measures it has put in place to facilitate strong performance against each factor. The second lens assesses the extent to which Action is already taken to exploit these circumstances and measures to drive the low-carbon transition to the extent possible. Each of the ten enabling factors is awarded a Capacity score, while seven are provided an Action score. The three that are not provided an action score – Supportive Political and Legal Context, Conducive Urban Form and Infrastructure and Societal Pressure – may be considered to some degree contextual enabling factors, within which the city authorities must operate but cannot easily influence or adjust (at least in the short term). Scores run from 0 (low) to 3 (high), although for the purposes of this paper, to allow sufficient flexibility, half-point scores will are permitted. Table 1 presents the broad criteria that must be met for each score, for each lens. Enabling Factor Capacity Score Action Score
