Veröffentlichung HBM4EU from the coordinator's perspective: lessons learnt from managing a large-scale EU project(2023) Hülck, Kathrin; Kolossa-Gehring, Marike; Gehring, Thomas; Pack, Kim LauraWe discuss some important management issues of the Human Biomonitoring Initiative (HBM4EU) from theperspective of the Coordinator that may be valuable for the design and management of similar projects. As alarge-scale international collaborative project, HBM4EU comprised 118 institutions from 30 countries and theEuropean Environment Agency and had a budget of about âą 74 million. It has set up an innovative cooperativenetwork of national and EU authorities and scientific institutions at the science-policy interface. A project of thisscale raises major management challenges and requires transparent, efficient, and well-organized administrativeand scientific steering structures. We present four major points: First, prior to the beginning of the project, theConsortium Agreement needs to be well elaborated to prevent conflicts during the project lifetime. Second, astrong role for national and EU policy-making authorities in the administrative governance structure enhancesthe interest of recipients of project results. Third, large-scale international collaborative projects need an elab-orate and well-financed scientific governance structure. Fourth, a differentiation of funding rates among projectactivities threatens to create conflicts. HBM4EU provides a prototype for EU funded large-scale projects targetingfuture policies for realizing the Green Deal and Zero Pollution Ambition in the field of chemicals, health, andenvironment. © 2022 The Authors
