DIGITAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT A. 1. PREPARATION
GOOD PRACTICES » The preparatory phase: p. 13 » MobiYouth.org: p. 14
When managing a project from beginning to end, it is necessary to coordinate a large number of partners and stakeholders. Digital tools can be enormously helpful in this regard. However, it requires that everyone involved in the project uses the same tool(s). During the preparation phase, therefore, all project partners need to agree which tools they will use throughout the entire process. Also, project monitoring and evaluation should be considered from the very beginning (more on that in section k 3.1 Evaluation ). 1.1 DEVELOPING IDEAS There are digital instruments that allow partners to create ideas together and collaborate on project design. They enable collaborative brainstorming, writing and designing. During this process, it may be necessary to set up virtual meetings in different constellations to drive ahead the project.

1.2 FINDING AND CONNECTING WITH COOPERATION PARTNERS When looking for cooperation partners ahead of implementing a project idea, it is recommended to do a thorough search of one’s own network using either e-mail or social media. While online spaces and tools can facilitate the search for potential partners, this, too, can take some time. Network maintenance and expert dialogue frequently take place in the virtual space, so it makes sense to keep an eye on this and actively contribute to the debates happening inside the community. That way one can gain an overview of potential partners for specific projects and obtain a quick response from the online community.
