ARTSS - Advanced Resilience Technologies for Secure Service

VPP

Annotation: The goal of the project is to elaborate a method extension and technological solutions for dynamic adaption and securing of services to limit the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and similar crisis situations by combining big data analysis, digital twins, knowledge management, and e-learning solutions.

Built-in resilience and citizen protection are a must for delivering essential services in a crisis situation such as the Covid-19 pandemic. The ability to continuously monitor and to adapt the delivery of these services contributes to their resilience. To this end, the ARTSS project aims to develop a method that is based on the following pillars:

● Business ecosystem modelling to map the diverse actors and their contributions involved in the service delivery;

● Capability management to design and run context dependent adjustment and management of services;

● Digital twins to ensure that the adjustments (decisions and actions) are propagated to the service delivery including advanced visualization of the service ecosystem;

● Large volumes of contextual data (live as well as historical) processing and management;

● Accumulation of reusable crisis response knowledge (best practices) in a form of pattern;

● Secure and resilient service adoption approach supported by digital learning material to facilitate broad-scale adoption of the ARTSS results.

The resilient services will be explored in the following four use cases of high practical value: 1) Secure foundational services; 2) Secure telemedicine service; 3) Secure remote workplace service; 4) Secure business services.

aNATOmy: one day with a NATO soldier

NATO OTAN logo

The project aNATOmy: one day with a NATO soldier” aims to help foster awareness and understanding of NATO, its values, policies, and activities, and to increase the level of debate on peace, security, and defense related issues. 

 The project aims to emphasize NATO’s values and role in ensuring security of our country. The main target groups that we aim to reach with this project are three: young people (age group 18 to 35), and especially young women in this age group; and broader, non-specialized publics, including the Russian speaking minority in Latvia. During the project, Vidzeme University of Applied Sciences (ViA) as the Lead partner with a project partner – the television channel in Latvia “ReTV” (ReTV)  - will produce the following: 


1.    A factual-documentary film (46 - 48 minutes long) about the daily life of NATO Allied Forces soldiers from the point of view of two young people (two students - one woman, one man), described in detail in Section 4 “Strategy” and Section 5 “Implementation”;
2.    One face-to-face discussion with live broadcast;
3.    Promotional content for the documentary film in TV (channel ReTV) and in the social media profiles of ViA and ReTV;
4.    Promotional content for the face-to-face discussion in the social media profiles of ViA and ReTV.


The project will run for six months, from July 1 until December 30, 2020. The total budget of the project requested from NATO is 9916 EUR.
