Courses address contemporary issues and research skills related to EU civil protection and humanitarian action, employability both for the advancement of the professional careers of students as well as their personal lives. Through advanced seminars and Conferences, JMC CIPROHA has contributed to better pedagogic, academic and media coverage of new challenges and recent developments in the field of European response to disasters and civil protection. This implies giving more emphasis in teaching, in- class and out-of-class on group work, in situ simulations to new topics, as well as focusing research activities of the project team and of the students participating to contemporary challenges of EU humanitarian action. The Project also implies an increased involvement of the Project team in the academic debate on subjects such as the one presented in the current book as well as in a dialogue with media and interested public and NGOs in general.
