observatories
The 6 Observatories set up within CiD support to identify resilience-related market needs and emerging professional innovation. They establish a network, including up to 100 stakeholders to connect the education and research environment with the surrounding socio/ economic environment.
The Observatories contribute to define the framework of challenges for the co-creation and flow of knowledge and the challenge-based learning and to the definition of skills to be developed by the learners. They provide continuous assessment of educational programmes and curricula, for cooperation agreements, and for transfer and dissemination. The Observatories are part of the CiD Innovation Ecosystem and drive the impact of CiD in economy and society.
