The representatives of the Advisory Committee, with the support of the Executive Secretariat, should develop an initial concept project and specific action plans to guide the activities of the VHL Network instance. In general, they include actions for maintaining and updating sources of information and the portal, communication and dissemination actions, inter-institutional technical cooperation activities, etc.. Projects should define priorities according to the needs and available resources, as well as the distribution of responsibilities and networking.
The planning, definition of scope, schedule, budget, execution, monitoring and closure of projects and/or action plans with documentation of the activities developed are important tools for strengthening the VHL, positioning it favorably in technical cooperation actions and funding opportunities with development agencies, ensuring and strengthening its sustainability.
