The SILKWAY project “Development of transversal and sustainable skills for the production of electricity and heat from renewable energy” – Project 101179683 – is a project funded by the Erasmus+ Capacity Building in Higher Education program , with a total budget of €888,379.2 and a maximum funding of €799,541.34.

The project is heavily focused on the European Green Deal and electricity and heat production, which is particularly important given the current geopolitical situation affecting countries in Central Asia. This initiative stems from the University of Cádiz's close collaboration with Central Asia through its International University Centre for Eastern Europe and Central Asia (CUNEAC) and its network of partners in the region, as well as the extensive history of cooperation between the University of Cádiz and Sapienza University of Rome in the preparation and implementation of European projects.

It comprises seven university partners: two from the European Union (University of Cádiz, project coordinator Professor Rafael Jiménez Castañeda, and Sapienza University of Rome); two from Kyrgyzstan (Osh State University and Jalal-Abad State University); and three from Uzbekistan (Tashkent State Technical University, Urgench State University, and Bukhara State University); as well as two business partners: the European companies Studio Santi Limited (Italy) and SINCROWATT6 SL (Cádiz, Spain). Furthermore, the project has the endorsement and support of numerous associations and public institutions in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan (embassies, ministries, and local and regional governments).

The SILKWAY project , like the Silk Road centuries ago, aims to bring growth and prosperity to the countries of Central Asia (Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan) in the field of energy and environmental protection, through the improvement and increase of the educational offer and the acquisition of transversal skills that, together with the creation of a network of actors, lead to a concrete improvement in professional competitiveness.

The Erasmus+ Capacity Building in Higher Education program supports the modernization, accessibility, and internationalization of higher education in EU external partner countries . The core of the project addresses the world of renewable energy, particularly clean energy production for electricity and heat, responding to a specific energy supply need in the country.

The project includes specific courses on these topics and renewable energy technologies based on the specific resources of the countries involved , complementing the training offer with the acquisition of transversal skills through the multidisciplinary delivery of courses on energy efficiency, circular economy and business development in the energy sector, so that students are given a complete vision of the environment in which they will be called to operate once they have completed their studies.

These new courses will be designed at a master's level, in accordance with the quality standards of the European Higher Education Area, and are expected to be accredited as postgraduate specialization courses . Accreditation will be a requirement of the project and the responsibility of each beneficiary university in Central Asia, in accordance with its academic regulations. This format allows the courses to be offered to all postgraduate and master's students, as well as professionals in the job market interested in acquiring new skills to work in this sector, which is currently experiencing very high growth.

Furthermore, in addition to the Green Deal, the project aims to address the second regional priority of sustainable growth and employment by creating a network of stakeholders , analyzing the professional needs of the local market, organizing career guidance days, and offering internships to students through cooperation agreements between universities and local businesses.

Teachers' skills will be improved, not only through specific training on the use of equipment, but also by offering innovative modules on teaching methods, which necessarily, and not only because of the pandemic, must be updated and undergo a change of perspective that puts the student at the center, the development of practical skills and the verification of the real knowledge acquired or brief summary.

The project will also offer the possibility of participating remotely in advanced training programs, educational programs, hackathons, masterclasses, competitions, exhibitions, and other forms of educational events. This allows the courses to be open to the maximum number of potential participants.

SILkWAY begins in November 2024 and ends in October 2027

The University of Cádiz is coordinating the Erasmus+ K2 SILKWAY project with Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. Focused on the European Green Deal, the project, titled ' Development of transversal and sustainable skills for the production of electricity and heat from renewable energy' – Project 101179683 – is funded by the Erasmus+ Capacity Building in Higher Education program with a total budget of €888,379.20 and a maximum funding of €799,541.34.

Вступление
В рамках проекта SILKWAY команда Ошского государственного университета отвечает за пакет работ 6 (WP6) – Коммуникация и распространение, который играет ключевую роль в успехе проекта, обеспечивая эффективное взаимодействие между участниками – членами консорциума, студентами и заинтересованными сторонами.
Задача 6.1 является неотъемлемой частью WP6 и включает в себя разработку Плана коммуникации и распространения информации. Основной целью Плана коммуникации и распространения информации является управление проектом, что помогает минимизировать риски и обеспечить своевременное информирование всех участников проекта.
При составлении наиболее эффективного плана коммуникаций и распространения информации мы определили основные элементы коммуникаций и распространения информации, проанализировали целевую аудиторию, каналы и методы распространения информации, запланировали обновления и определили лиц, ответственных за коммуникации и распространение информации в рамках проекта, от каждого члена консорциума.
