Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'ESTEEM aims at contributing to the coordination of research activities and policies between the EU and the Neighbouring Countries on transport issues. More specifically, its aim is to strengthen and enhance the links between Maghreb and the neighbouring EU countries – namely Italy, France and Spain - in order to identify strategic priorities and topics for high quality researches on safety and security in transport system and infrastructure. The project has been outlined by a consortium consisting of seven organizations with different but complementary field of expertise related to transportation. Each partner represents a country of the selected area of intervention, which means a well-balanced geographical distribution and a consequent higher number and range of potential beneficiaries to be reached. The proposal is structured according to the following method: • the state of the art on safety and security related research in the selected region will be analyzed; • specific sub-areas will be identified according to the main needs in the domain of transport system safety and security; • surveys will be conducted on each sub-area in order to identify priority research actions to be undertaken; • a series of workshops will be organized in order to validate the surveys’ results, with the aim of identifying specific topics and defining potential guidelines and roadmaps for future research; • an ad hoc network will be set up with the aim of fostering collaboration among the participant and disseminating the project’s results to an as wide as possible range of stakeholders. Relevant stakeholders and other interested entities will be invited to join the network, hence improving collaborations at all levels. Co-ordination of research activities and policies on transport related topics will be in this way ensured across the whole Mediterranean area as well as a long lasting impact and sustainability.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
Enhancing safety and security in transport systems and infrastructure in the Mediterranean region has been the focus of an EU-funded project.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Links between North African Mediterranean partner countries (MPCs) and southern Europe have been strengthened through the identification of common research themes at the regional level. The coordination of different Mediterranean organisations has been achieved thanks to an ad-hoc network that will ensure the project's lasting impact in the region.
The project 'Enhancing safety and security aspects in transport research in the EuroMediterranean region' (Esteem) has successfully identified the sub-areas to be investigated, including road safety management, human factors in road safety, use of information systems and infrastructure design. Researchers compared the situation of the four sub-areas in European countries with the MPCs in order to understand what security measures should be adopted for the transport field.
Stakeholder consultation has enabled better understanding of how current challenges can be overcome and which aspects of European best practice should be applied to the MPCs. Findings by project partners have been used to draw up road maps for future research. Project events have been supported by networking and dissemination activities to ensure the initiative has a lasting impact in the region.
A secretariat for the Esteem project has also been created and together with its website can be used to disseminate results from surveys and workshops. Other dissemination tools have been developed such as a project leaflet, logo, newsletters and calls for papers.
The Esteem project has contributed to future research road maps for both the FP7 'Transport programme' and MPC governments, and will help coordinate high-quality research and transport policies. The initiative will therefore provide major benefits for citizens of countries on either side of the Mediterranean Sea.
