During this second year of the project, actions were mainly dedicated to promoting a deeper understanding of new tools for a number of audiences who will benefit from this suite and to engage with target groups to facilitate adoption and usage of DTOcean+ design tools. The project website appears as the main channel for information dissemination, but social media are proving to be valuable assets in generating traffic on the dtoceanplus.eu, with high number of downloaded documentations produced by the DTOceanPlus team. Mainstream media are a good way to reach the general public and the number of articles about the project is higher than expected. DTOceanPlus was presented in numerous meetings, workshops and conferences at regional and international levels. Globally, most of the targets have improved during this second of the project and some of them are well beyond the initial objectives.
