The main objective of this Knowledge Alliance was to establish an international learning, teaching and knowledge-sharing environment that contributes to the development and professionalisation of leadership and innovation in the field of international safety and security. •The guiding principles were:•Multi Stakeholder collaboration•Co-Creation•Evidence Based Management•International Perspectiv•Allignment between Policy and practiceThe Knowledge Alliance consisted of partners from higher education, private industry, law enforcement, municipalities and NGOs. In particular, it included nine partners representing educational, business and network organisations, as well as agencies from the emergency, crisis, safety and security sectors, each with complementary skills and expertise. Some partners were experts in research, others in education, while others were safety and security professionals across diverse areas and from operational to strategic level. Our project further established a high-profile advisory board consisting of core actors in the security arena that advised on the progress of the project.The main products that were developed during the course of the project were:The main products that were developed during the course of the project were:•A Holistic Executive Master (MSc) programme on International Security Management;•A Horizon Scanning Tool (HST)•A Massive Open Online Course (MOOC);•A Security Multilogue Platform (SMP) Open World Version; a Forum based tool for exchange of ideas within the Msc •A Security Multilogue Platform closed version; a forum tool to incorporate the outcomes of the Horizon Scanning Exercise provide by use of the HST for students of the MSc International Security Management.•A White paper on online co-design of blended learning by using synchronous communication technology;•A book called “International Security Management: New Solutions to Complexity”•A website used for dissemination and presentation of the ISM-KA products called www.ism-ka.euAll ISM-KA main products have been shaped around the MSc programme, which is the core outcome of the ISM-KA project that may represent the main source of income. Indirectly, revenues derived from the MSc programme will cover some expenses of the other ISM-KA main products. All publicly accessible products will be offered through the ISMKA website www.ism-ka.eu and on the Erasmus Plus Project Results Plaform ensuring their visibility and helping with their sustainability. The products are designed to be compatible and complementary to one and another thereby enhancing their users’ knowledge and experience in the safety and security domain. The sections below describe the products that have been developed; the envisaged role for the current consortium partners in the exploitation; and the perceived benefit for the partners to do so. To ensure the exploitation of the products of the ISM-KA each ISM-KA main product will be managed in terms of content update and budget by the partner organisation that has developed it. The main exploitable project outcome being the ISM-KA MSc programme will be, for now, the sole exploitable product in terms of direct revenue. The HST and the SMP – closed version will be hosted by Sheffield Hallam University (SHU) and utilised and covered as part of the ISM- MSc programme. The MOOC will remain imbedded on the Coursera platform and any necessary updates will be performed by RSM. For the SMP open world version a source of revenue will be sought trough platform membership fees that will in return cover the future upkeep and sustainability of the platform managed by FORMIT.

CUDIMHA intends to address Tunisian’s needs of modernisation and internationalisation of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) by developing an innovative 2 years Master in History and Archaeology providing labour market-oriented skills for the target audience holding Bachelor’s degree in the Humanities field. In particular, CUDIMHA aims at fostering innovative teaching, learning approaches and methodologies through the delivery of blended teaching units combining in presence and on-line courses, tutored projects on the field, traineeships, experience abroad keeping the focus on new contents and ICT tools use. The project targets objectives dealing with: 1) internationalisation and modernisation of HEIs History and Archaeology curriculum fostering innovative teaching/learning approaches; 2) better alignment of students' skills to labour market requirements; 3) sharing of best practices and knowledge transfer; 4) enhancing cooperation between Tunisian and EU universities, and also at national scale among Tunisian universities and other relevant stakeholders: some of them appearing in the project as Associated partners; 5) addressing gender inequality issues in the education and participation on the labour market; 6) raising awareness among project stakeholders regarding the cultural heritage in Tunisia. These objectives will be realized in close collaboration with Tunisian public authorities, encouraging the development of new contents, the use of ICT tools, experience abroad for Tunisian students and staff, involving 85 students (65 Tunisian), 51 academic and administrative staff people (41 Tunisian), civil servants representing Tunisian authorities.

The overall objective of PEERS is to advance and reinforce existing policy through practitioner-driven pre-normative standardisation processes, which will enhance the development of a European Better Practice ecosystem. The project aims to support the effective strengthening of preparedness and response in the field of DRR and CBRN-e through standardisation. The ecosystem brings together Europe's disaster risk management for natural hazards and CBRN-E and European research policy-making, societal stakeholders standardisation bodies, and industry stakeholders to strengthen European resilience to all hazards through a comprehensive engagement and consultation governance mechanism.

Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (FIMI) including information suppression concern a series of threatening behaviours in the information domain and represents a major challenge, in terms of counteraction and the policy-making in this matter. Numerous FIMI operations carried out by non-EU State and non-State actors, often recorded within and beyond EU borders, aims to domestically threaten fundamental rights and freedoms and could as well produce threatening effects outside of their borders. The RESONANT project aims to create a better picture and understanding of State and non-State actors applying information suppression and to recommend strategies, tools and methodologies to reduce the impact and the vulnerability of the target groups, as the Diaspora Communities. In order to understand which actors outside the EU use in a coordinated manner Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPS) of information suppression, RESONANT proposes to analyse information suppression incidents, thus creating an Evidence Base. Considering both the domestic and cross-border dimensions of information suppression, the project will also examine the mainly adopted TTPs, as well as the available Tools for their Detection and Analysis. For enhancing the knowledge regarding the effects of information suppression, RESONANT proposes an analysis of Behavioural changes in Diaspora Communities as result of information suppression and of the Awareness and Preparation of EU State Authorities in terms of practical legal means, providing selected Case Studies. Furthermore, the project will propose the definition of a Methodological Toolkit and Policy Recommendations, as well as the organisation of Table Top Exercises and Focus Group Policy Discussion, for addressing information suppression and FIMI. RESONANT will realise a Handbook of methodologies and policy recommendations, contributing to communicate and disseminate practical means to counter information suppression and FIMI.
