EuNIT European Project Design and Management in the South Mediterranean Region Project Presentation The Capacity Building project “European project desigN and management In the South MediTerranean region” is a joint project designed by the Euro-Mediterranean Universities Network TETHYS, Aix-Marseille University for a 3-year period. It aims to address the priority of the Internationalisation of Higher Education Institutions (HEI) in countries in the South-Mediterranean region focusing on Lebanon, Jordan and Libya. The project’s wider objective is to enable South Mediterranean Partner Country HEIs to build durable international partnerships and maximise their internationalisation efforts. It has developed a comprehensive training program for 24 participants from 8 selected Partner Country HEIs with a total of 8 training of trainers sessions and 8 practical placements taking place in European universities. This has equipped staff in Partner Country HEIs with the necessary skills to successfully set up and run an “EU project design and management unit” and hold internal training sessions within their HEIs. These training sessions have been developed into Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) accessible via the project website for staff from other HEIs in the region. The selected Partner Country HEIs are now setting up a regional EuNIT network to promote the exchange of good practices, use of MOOCs and also offer training sessions for staff from other HEIs in the region in EU project design and management.
