Co-authors: Glória Isidro, Henriqueta Louro, Maria João Silva (INSA)The current deliverable describes the process of revision of the first list of indicators (published in
June 2017 as D6.1.) and presents the indicator leaflets ((see attachment 1) that link key results of
HBM4EU to the objectives of the project as laid down in the description of action. These indicator
leaflets already contain a lot of results on the revised list of indicators, and give very valuable
information on the progress of HBM4EU in relation to the specific goals of the project. Combining
the information from these leaflets in the frame of expected impacts will allow us to put forward
conclusions towards impact and sustainability of HBM4EU.
As such, this restructured list answers to the main comments on the first list of indicators from the
task 6.5 partners, the Management Board, the Governing Board and the EU Policy Board, in
concretu to:
• Drastically reduce the number of indicators from 48 indicators (including 9 internal
indicators) on the first list to 28 indicators on the revised list without losing essential
information. Moreover by bundling related indicators we now have 22 indicator leaflets
(and 1 overview leaflet);
• Make the relationship between the indicators and the goals of HBM4EU more clear by
structuring the list of indicators according to the overarching objectives and specific goals;
• Use the indicators to say something about the impact of the HBM4EU project: the indicator
leaflets were used to give input for the impact section of the periodic technical reporting
2018 to describe the progress made for the 5 expected impacts of HBM4EU. This exercise
will be continued and ameliorated in the 2019 periodic technical reporting as more indicator
leaflets will be available compared to 2018;
• Link the indicators with the work on sustainability of HBM in Europe: the indicators were
presented at the sustainability workshop in Paris. Participants indicated that they think the
leaflets will be useful for institutional discussions, national hub meetings, meetings with
policy makers and other meetings and that they would like to use them as soon as they are
available.
The added value of having indicators of success, is to monitor the implementation and achieved
impact of HBM4EU. This will allow for a more efficient tracking of achieved goals. This deliverable
will help to further optimize and revise the first set of indicators to monitor the implementation of the
HBM4EU and the achieved impact.
The indicators of success are written in a clear language, they are concise and capture the main
achievements in the list of indicators that has been agreed amongst the partners. Therefore, they
can be easily used by all partners across the consortium, the EU Policy Board and our HBM4EU
