Exploitation, dissemination, education and outreach in the frame of the COST action ES0803 developing space weather products and services in Europe''

COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is one of the longest-running European frameworks supporting cooperation among scientists and researchers across Europe. Its action ES0803 Developing Space Weather Products and Services in Europe'' involves the task Exploitation, Dissemination, Education and Outreach''. To meet the objectives of this task, we describe how we developed and maintained the Space Weather Portal, initiated the electronic Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, took care of the scientific organization of the annual European Space Weather Week conference and of two schools for scientists and students from the space weather community. We also describe several dissemination projects supported by the action, which target the non-specialist in the field of space weather.
