Activity under preparation AAP 2023 Digitalisation and connectivity package Contract related to: AAP 2023 Digitalisation and connectivity package - This action aims at reinforcing the role and capacities of universities and research and education centres in the Southern Neighbourhood through specific support measures at technical, institutional and policy levels. Their potential shall be enhanced through a better access to modern digital infrastructures and technologies. This shall ultimately trigger a significant upgrade of the scientific collaboration between both shores of the Mediterranean. By 2026, public institutions in charge of education and research in Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt will indeed fully benefit from a new high speed digital submarine cable (called MEDUSA, co-financed by EIB with a contribution from the Neighbourhood Investment Platform). This flagship digital infrastructure project will secure direct high-speed connectivity between the North African countries and the EU (up to 200 Gigabits per second for each North African country, i.e. exponentially bigger than what is available today). The EU contribution to MEDUSA will secure the connectivity needs (at best commercial conditions) for the next 25 years to a growing number of (currently) 500 universities, and research and education centres across the North African region. Other Southern Neighbourhood countries might be connected to MEDUSA at a later stage. In Jordan, Lebanon and Palestine (not benefitting from MEDUSA connectivity during the current phase), this Action will allow for ensuring continuous access to high speed and secure broadband connectivity for universities and research and education centres. The action therefore aims at incentivizing researchers and students in the Southern Neighbourhood to become contributors of world class research and innovation. By facilitating access to educational and research resources and enabling research collaboration, the project will support the digital transformation and related skills development, in numerous research domains including climate adaptation (as a key priority in the region, being the second most affected region in the world affected by climate change). This will also consolidate the gradual region¿s integration into EU¿s essential terabit R&D network.
