The aim of the leaflets is to effectively communicate the goals of the project to the intended target audience during events, workshops, conferences or other events.
During the course of the project, 4 leaflets were created and distributed. One written in English for general presentation of the project’s concept, vision, solutions and activities. 3 other leaflets generated for each pilot City and distributed. In terms of content, these latter follow the same structure as the general, project concept, vision, pilot solution, and project activities.

Posters are means of local communication for pilot stakeholders. The following posters were used by the Águeda pilot to raise awareness about the project to boost attendance with their users for local activities (such as workshops). In particular, attention was drawn to the first application created for Águeda Pilot called “Have Your Say” app. The first poster below was targeted for other Portuguese Municipalities that would like to implement the application or get involved with the STOM CLOUDS project. The second poster below is targeted to Agueda citizens and explains the value proposition of the application and how to start using it.
