DETECt will promote the implementation of a vast range of initiatives aimed at maximising the impact of the project within and particularly beyond the academic community. This goal will be reached by addressing a variety of target groups, including:

Professionals of the creative industries

Fans and critics of popular culture

In order to disseminate the research findings to these audiences, and to involve them in the dissemination activities, the DETECt partners will produce a large number of outputs including: – two conferences and a series of conference papers and panels – two edited collections and a series of peer-reviewed articles – a series of screenings of European crime films – an exhibition about the history of crime fiction in Europe – a web portal exploring European crime narratives in fiction, film and television – a web mobile app mapping the locations of European crime TV shows – two webinars on the production of European crime films and television – a series of edit-a-thons of Wikipedia entries on the Europeannes of crime narratives – a Massive Online Open Course on the representation of European identity in crime narratives – a series of dissemination events involving writers, filmmakers, and TV creative and targeted at local communities.

The Dissemination and Communication Team, along with the Press and Media Team, will assure that the work carried out by the Consortium receives the appropriate coverage by mainstream and specialised media in all the countries involved in the project. To reach this goal, DETECt Project Communication Manager and the Press Office will coordinate the shared effort of all partners to attract the attention of local, national, and international media on the project’s dissemination activities.
