NEXUS |
The Nodes of Excellence in (SEA) Universities through Spatial Data NEXUS project is an Erasmus + CBHE
(Capacity Building in High Education) proposal whose main aim is to enhance the research capacities of
HEIs in the southeast Asian region, by strengthening relationships between Education, Research and
Innovation in GIS, SDI and remote sensing, for applications that are related to environment, agriculture
and situations of emergency. The project will develop a common nexus between various actors of research
and innovation (HEIs, research centers, spin-off companies) in Thailand, Myanmar and Cambodia where
specific methodologies for innovation transfer are convergent with EU developments in accordance with
Europe 2020 strategy and Smart specialisation initiatives which is a new engine to boost R&D growth and
subsequently job opportunities and business creation. This will improve the transfer of innovation from
universities to local and regional enterprises, enhancing their innovation potential for geodata use and
generating new applied research.

8 | Balance |
Government public expenditure
reduction is one of the many challenges that Cambodian Higher Education System is facing. Explosive
growth in enrollment, difficulties to recruit and retain highly qualified staff and obsolete facilities
also contribute to affect the quality of the education and therefore the increasing of graduate
unemployment or under-employment. BALANCE consortium identified the improvement of the HEIs Financial Management as the key point to target in order to face the above mentioned challenges and satisfy the government demands. Indeed, Financial Management is the cornerstone of institutional management and quality education. The whole project detail: Go to balance-project.eu |

9 | Factori-4.0 |
For these ASIAN countries, the industrial structure of the economy is still at its beginning and is
facing many challenges with their education system. One of them is the lack of expert education with
corresponding skills to work on new technology of automation in processing and manufacturing system.
ASEAN FACTORI 4.0 project is proposed to contribute to this challenge by the design of a set of
industrial automation labs with a corresponding staff training program to initiate the foundation of
center of excellence in automation in each institute, different kinds of pedagogical process will be
implemented to creative a network of competencies among our partner countries following their local needs
and to permit cross learning approach during the project. Through the industrial 4.0 roadmap, the project
is the first step to educate students to prepare a future generation of qualified workers able to
implement advanced manufacturing and processing machinery. RUPP part detail: Go to RUPP part detail The whole project detail: Go to factori-erasmus-project.eu |

SDGs Project: Sustainable Development Goals in Journalism Reporting Effective 15 may
2020 Media is an important stakeholder in regard to societies reaching the goals of development-both as a contributor and a beneficiary. Notwithstanding, the Communication and media studies curriculum in the Asian HEIs seem to not successfully match with the skills required for effective sustainable development reporting in order to delivery the 2030 Agenda. The new courses will respond to the need for modernization of curricula in journalism and media reporting in the PC-HEIs, the need for journalist education with focus on sustainable development as well as the need for strong journalistic and pluralistic media system and the process of sustainable development. The curriculum content is designed to install the skills and level of data literacy necessary to produce both short data stories on a deadline as well as longer in-depth stories that explain underlying development challenges facing the region through data and digital storytelling. By choosing what is in a story, how the story is told, and the diversity of stories, journalists and editors have the capacity to enhance or limit the information people will use to form opinions and make decisions. Specifically, the objective pursued is in department of Media and Communication of Faculty of Social Science and Humanities of RUPP.
