Sair do papel

português para inglês Outra Geral/conversas/saudações/cartas expression
Context:

Além de conectar os órgãos municipais, o secretário procura formas de facilitar o acesso da população à internet. Projetos não faltam. O primeiro a sair do papel provavelmente será o “Praça Digital”, cujo objetivo é instalar módulos em espaços públicos de áreas de baixo IDH. “Em dois meses, o projeto piloto deve estar funcionando”, prevê Andrade.
