AYBU has a New EU Project: GRADEU

“Global Risk Assessment Dataset and the EU’s Role in the Governance of Global Risks”

AYBU, Faculty of Political Science faculty member Assoc. Prof. Dr. İsmail Erkam Sula received a grant for his research on the transformation of global risks in the post-Cold War period. Dr. Sula’s research group, established with his students from the post-graduate programs of the AYBU IR Department, was granted 30.000 Euro by the EU Erasmus+ Jean Monnet Program based on their dataset, which they named as the GRAD (Global Risk Assessment Data).

The Jean Monnet Module Project GRADEU (Global Risk Assessment Dataset and The EU’s role in the Governance of Global Risks) assesses the EU’s role in the governance of global risks and threats. The project focuses on delivering specialization training and providing policy recommendations on the global governance crisis in seven main categories listed as follows: (1) Artificial Intelligence (Al) & Technology, (2) Development, (3) Economy, (4) Environment, (5) Health, (6) Nuclear Power, and (7) Social Mass Mobility.

The Project started on 1 October 2022 and will continue for 3 years, containing more than 300 hours of lectures & seminars to be delivered by 10 scholars from 9 different universities to the undergraduate and graduate students from and beyond AYBU. As part of the project activities the students, faculty members and researchers at AYBU will have the opportunity to obtain expert information on the EU and global governance from a broad perspective.
