• Support the European Commission in raising the profile of the Copernicus brand and the Copernicus programme
• Raise awareness of the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service specifically

Editor's Notes
Our aims for communication
Sector conferences like – Energy Live News, Stakeholder & media briefings in the UK, Sweden, Germany, France, Belgium, Spain
International conferences such as COP21
Selling in news stories to capture a broad audience or placing feature articles in sector specific press such as those for Parliamentarians and policy-makers
Creating an online presence for CAMS, bringing the pre-cursor MACC content and catalogue across and generating new content to showcase our activity, and seeding our content on social media so that it can be picked up and shared.
But what next?
Measure so we can prove impact: Usability research for the websites
Audience awareness for impact
Content that can be used across channels eg digital, and plain english enough to make Copernicus understood – infographics, how to videos
Working with Copernicus partners such as EUMETSAT and ESA as well as with you, to promote your work and expertise
