Project title: „Cooperation for developing joint curriculum on tackling hybrid threats (HYBRIDC)
Project duration: from 2022-09-01 to 2025-08-31
Project manager: Aurelija Pūraitė

Summary: The current security situation in Europe demonstrates well the need for a MA program which will provide the knowledge on hybrid threats. Main objectives of this Project are aiming to develop a research-based comprehensive international Curriculum enabling the delivery of a Masters’ course with the specific focus on tackling hybrid threats. The Curriculum would include study materials on each topic. In addition, the system for the uptake of micro- qualifications/credentials would be developed.

The planned activities are multi-folded: first, a scientific research agenda will be developed promoting thus the research of hybrid threats and related topics in a systematic manner.

Second, Project Partners’ academic staff members will attend training on hybrid threats.

Third, the Curriculum development which forms the core of this Project. The Curriculum would be available for EU and non-EU training institutions for the implementation and future integration into national Masters’ studies.

Main results of this project are: 9 scientific articles dedicated to hybrid threats; a ready-made Masters’ Course Curriculum in line with EQF level 7 requirements; the methodology and study materials for students; and the system for micro qualifications/

credentials uptake.

This project would provide a new knowledge and skills for academic staff members enabling recognizing and tackling hybrid

threats, as well as personal experiences gained during the project implementation.

The project is funded by the Erasmus+ KA2-Cooperation Partnerships programme.
