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 use of simulation in teaching and learning in nurse education is gaining momentum, as a result of a growing body of evidence which notes its efficiency and effectiveness. The objectives of this project were to address the lack of universal simulation resources particularly in relation to community care. This project sought to develop a simulation kit - comprising three simulation resources- which could be used across different countries. All the ten partners listed in section 2.1 below, participated in the planning, development, and evaluation of a simulation kit named NURSKit, which is now freely accessible for the next two years through the University of Malta website: https://www.um.edu.mt/projects/ispad/about-us-2/. The NURSKit includes three different scenarios. Each scenario comes with a kit for the facilitator who will be guiding the students during this scenario, pre-scenario resources to prepare the students for the activity and post-scenario resources to enable the carrying out of the student debriefing session. Scenario 1 focuses on a person living in the community without established chronic disease, but with multiple risk factors. This scenario was developed by Lahti University of Applied Sciences, SAMK University , University College Dublin ( leader) Scenario 2 includes a person living with diabetes and experiencing psychosocial issues as a consequence of his chronic condition. This scenario was developed by Molise University, Turku University, Cardiff University ( Leader). Scenario 3 focuses on end of life care. This scenario was developed by Middlesex University, Oslomet University , JAMK ( Leader). The University of Malta was responsible for overseeing the development of all three scenarios. Three experts, all authorities in the field of nurse education, from three different continents - Australia (Professor Simon Cooper from the School of Nursing, Midwifery and Healthcare, Federation University Australia), Africa (Professor Abeer Saad Eswi, Cairo University, Egypt), Asia- (Professor Cho Eun-Jung, Yeungnam University College, South Korea) contributed to the project as consultant/ advisors, thus enabling a wide comprehensive universal relevance of the simulation kit. The second objective of the project was to develop and deliver an innovative training programme to two individuals from each of the ten participating universities, with the aim of them becoming ""Simulation Champions"", at their own respective partner institution and championing the development of simulation. This training programme was developed by the University of Lahti and the University of Malta. The programme was delivered jointly by the two universities in 2017. Twenty participants successfully completed the training programme. These participants were academics from each of the 10 participating orgnisations (section 2.1). Two academics from each of the universities were trained in the use of simulation. This training programme entitled ""Simulation In Nurse Education"" (SINE) Champion Award Certificate"" included 5 ECTS at EQF level 6. The training programme and simulation kit were both evaluated. The training programme was evaluated through the use of focus groups with the participation of the trainers who delivered the programme and the students who took part in the programme. The feedback on the training programme was very positive and this programme is now available for delivery by other institutions who may wish to run this programme within their own entity. The NURSKit was evaluated through the use of an online survey which was designed to measure students' knowledge and self-reported competence before and after following the simulation exercise. The students were also included in a number of focus groups to identify their experience in participating in the project. The feedback on the NURSkit was also very positive. The research study indicated that students improved in terms of knowledge and perceived competence with the use of all three scenarios. This suggests that this NURSkit is a useful tool for the teaching and learning of community related nursing. The long term benefits are that both the NURSKit and the training programme which have been developed are available for the use of other Universities via the University of Malta website and can be applied on a universal scale."

SUPERB pursues the overall goal to create a lasting enabling environment for transformative change towards large-scale forest and forest landscape restoration, which empowers decision makers to take just and informed decisions for restoration of biodiversity, ecosystem services and carbon sequestration in a manner that minimises region specific trade-offs and maximises synergies between ecosystem services. SUPERB develops and synthesises a multidisciplinary, practical, and scientific restoration knowledge basis and makes it publicly available. In 12 large-scale demonstrators across Europe, we will showcase best practices responding to key forest restoration and adaptation challenges on some hundreds of hectares per demo and with the potential for immediate upscaling to over one million hectares in 10-15 years. For large scale restoration to be successful, many actors from different sectors and disciplines must behave synergistically and in a mutually reinforcing way. We will speed up transformative change and further upscaling through innovative stakeholder involvement across scales to ensure the favorability and uptake of the proposed approaches. A comprehensive multi-language online Forest Ecosystem Restoration Gateway will guide stakeholders to find answers to their restoration questions, advise them on how to deal with barriers and enablers and provide access to easily applicable and comprehensible tools and materials that support restoration, e.g., best practices for forest restoration or the development of scalability plans, a tree species selection application, an innovative funding guide, and much more. The Gateway will also host a restoration Marketplace, where market agents, e.g. potential funders and landowners, can agree on bids for restoration projects. SUPERB will boost and measure its impact through its extensive and systematically enlarged stakeholder communities and networks, to ensure the relevance of the project outputs and their positive uptake.
