Guidelines for Writing the Scientific Section of a Final Report (Projects)

Part I: Summary for the general public     Target group: general public  Purpose of use: WWTF webpage, publishing material addressing non-expert audiences  Language: German AND English  
If you do not feel confident to write in German, nor have a team member that can provide a description in German, only submit the English summary. 2.500-3.700 characters (including spaces) each

Guidelines:

Explain your research in simple terms/concepts for members of the public with no scientific background. Avoid technical jargon and terms used only in your scientific community. Describe how your research questions and the underlying scientific problem tie into societal challenges and issues (where possible). Highlight the (potential) mid- to long-term applications outside the scientific area to which your research does or could contribute. Please provide one figure that visually captures the idea of the project or represents a central result (if available).
