The program is organized in 4 semesters (120ECTS), one semester must be spent with one partner and one NGO will be selected by each partner. More specifically, some expected outcomes are: (1) a consortium agreement among the five partner universities and two institutions, (2) the joint procedures for student application, admission, selection, monitoring, and performance evaluation, (3) the curriculum, including the green, social, and digital skills and micro-credentials courses, and (4) the internships at NGOs. By the end, partners intend to submit to accreditation agencies and EMJMD.
