Over the project implementation period, URGENT activities has generated considerable impacts at the institutional level. These impacts have to do with increased visibility and competitiveness of partner universities through enhanced course offere and better learning infrastructure, their better and more structured relationship with labor market actors, and improved national and international profiles as centres of the studies of green and blue infrastructure and urban resilience in general. The drivers of such impacts are new and revised URGENT curricula, training events, capacity building and networking events with stakeholders and international academic partners, establishment and activities of national stakeholder interaction platforms, development of knowledge and ICT infraststructure for research training, and development of advanced QA arrangements curriculum development, including the introduction of student feedback and follow-up discussions with course owners (see URBAN_learn for documentation).
