Activities

Staff-Exchange Twinning (SET) visits

Each SET will comprise on-the-job and side-by-side sharing of experience and transferring of knowledge and data in a two-fold manner:

  • thematically, on the subject-matters of the specialized expertise of each Advanced Partner
  • horizontally, on each Advanced Partner’s approach and excellent-praxis in research-management-&-administration and in operation of networks-of-excellence.

Adjunct Professorships/ Lectureships/ Trainerships (APLeT)

APLeT will engage more tangibly the relevant internationally-leading Staff from the Advanced Partners, by incorporating them in an “Affiliated” and/or “Adjunct/ Visiting” function in the Faculty and/or Research teams of CERIDES at EUC. According to seniority and expertise-profile, these “affiliations” and/or “adjunctions” may take the form of:

  • Professorship, and/or
  • Lectureship, and/or
  • Trainerships.

Hands-On Trainings (HOT)

HOTs will provide hands-on experience in a comprehensive and focused manner, leveraging and putting to practice the specialized expertise of each Advanced Partner. HOTs will have two modalities:

  • Short-courses, in the form of dedicated workshops targeting EUC scientific and student personnel, as well as other relevant stakeholders (governmental, entrepreneurial, societal) locally and regionally; and
  • Field-Exercises, in the form of participatory simulations of wildfire-operations, which will engage stakeholders such as civil protection and emergency personnel, firefighters, forest services, volunteers, city/community councils, and civic associations (including non-governmental organizations).

 

 

Work Plan

The table highlights how the SEMEDFIRE Networking, capacity-building and knowledge-transfer activities will be conducted throughout the duration of the project. The actions are evenly distributed to each of the four work  packages, lead by the Advanced Partners, according to their expertise and their designated contribution.
