English term or phrase: DGs and EGs
European Commission level. First, it would be desirable to publish the Final Report and make it available to all interested DGs within the European Commission and also to all relevant representatives of institutions associated with the European Commission via the EC’s information service and distribution system. Second, it would greatly help to promote the visibility of the findings generated by the FamWork project if a print version of the Final Report’s executive summary would be distributed at a large scale.
