Through the development of the international network of interconnected smart labs that we are proposing, we aim to provide students from Master and PhD levels, from different parts of the World (Romania, Portugal, Italy, Israel and Spain), with flexible digital study options. Through this, the project will ensure a more accessible higher education by providing the right conditions for students of different backgrounds to succeed, but also by using a delivery technology that is accessible all around the world. LLSF will thus provide digital readiness (in terms of IoT studies) to the universities promoting the project, but also resilience of educational services in the face of unexpected events, like the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to better address the digital transformation and resilience priority, we also aim to implement courses that will offer access to online learning.

Project goals:

• contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals to create a better world by 2030: quality education; gender equality; responsible consumption and production and digitalization;
• implement, test and disseminate new solutions and pedagogical approaches, and provide strong interdisciplinary approach in the field of digital technologies;
• further develop European online training for smart specialization on IoT and Big Data technologies offering a Methodology to integrate the identified mechanisms into existing security procedures already adopted by partners;
• address the lack of Living labs in an international environment and thus diversifying the academic offer.
