Citizens, policy makers and researchers all over Europe will be required to face more and more challenges in terms of security., resilience and sustainability in the forthcoming years, determined by already known issues such as climate change and global warming as well as by novel scenarios such as cyber-threats., cyberwarfare and cyberattacks. Therefore, it is crucial to address this fast-evolving landscape with proper educational approaches capable of involving Higher Education Institution at a trans-national level and of providing students with adequate expertise on a broad range of risk assessment, management and mitigation strategies. To such purpose, the Erasmus+ funded project titled “EUSecure” has been started by five EU universities to provideinterdisciplinary training on the EU security, resilience and sustainability areas.

Abstract
Citizens, policy makers and researchers all over Europe will be required to face more and more challenges in terms of security., resilience and sustainability in the forthcoming years, determined by already known issues such as climate change and global warming as well as by novel scenarios such as cyber-threats., cyberwarfare and cyberattacks. Therefore, it is crucial to address this fast-evolving landscape with proper educational approaches capable of involving Higher Education Institution at a trans-national level and of providing students with adequate expertise on a broad range of risk assessment, management and mitigation strategies. To such purpose, the Erasmus+ funded project titled “EUSecure” has been started by five EU universities to provideinterdisciplinary training on the EU security, resilience and sustainability areas. In this paper, the design stage of the project is reported, by focusing on the adopted design strategy (which involves both a simulation-supported MOOC and the blended learning approach). A fully-designed learning module will be described as well.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
