The goal of the Z-Project is to facilitate the collaborative implementation of the Indo-German FOR 2432 and to ensure its visibility and standing in the larger context of international collaboration in agricultural and environmental research. Specifically the Z-Project will coordinate the administrative management of FOR2432, the adherence to the rules of good scientific practice, and data handling routines, the preparation of project meetings, the organisation of communication between the projects, the negotiation of contracts between German and Indian partners, support the further development of the Rural-Urban Centre at UASB in India, the coordination of financial issues and reporting, and the information of the public about the consortium´s research progress and results. This includes own publication activities. The Z-Project will also monitor the implementation of the planned measures for early career support and gender equity. Scientifically, the Z-Project will contribute to the development of overall and cluster-specific hypotheses to guide our joint research, and the preparation of new activities and components of FOR 2432. This includes the initiation and implementation of project-overarching publications, in particular with synthesis or conceptual character, and the active extension of the cooperation network with scientists and institutions outside FOR 2432.
