Elena M. Hartmann is the editorial pen name used for the site’s explanatory guides.
Editorial role
The author identity provides a consistent byline for research, drafting and maintenance across the guide library. It is not presented as an EU official, lawyer, investment adviser, programme evaluator, scientist or representative of any institution named on the site.
Guides are structured to distinguish stable system explanations from time-sensitive details. Current programmes, calls, funding conditions, implementation dates and legal obligations are checked through official sources and flagged for reader verification.
What readers should expect
- Plain-language explanations of institutional and programme relationships.
- Practical questions, sequences and pitfalls rather than promotional claims.
- Clear editorial boundaries and links to official sources.
- Corrections when supported by reliable evidence.
Corrections
Factual corrections can be submitted through the WRS help desk. Include the exact page URL, disputed wording and an official or primary source supporting the correction.
