On behalf of the Wildlife Diseases Association, the National Reference Centre for Wildlife Diseases (Ce.R.M.A.S.) and the Italian Society of Ecopathology (SIEF) we are happy to welcome you to S.Vincent and the 7th Conference of the European section of the Wildlife Diseases Association. The scientific programme is really varied and ranges from invertebrate to mammals. We have chosen some topics that are of great concern among professional and ordinary people, such as wildlife and emerging diseases, wildlife diseases and conservation, wildlife diseases monitoring and risk of disease transmission between wildlife and domestic animals. Data exchange and discussion are the goal of every scientific meeting. We hope our organization efforts will create a friendly and stimulating environment and allow all of us to increase not only our culture, but also our friendship. The front line of wildlife diseases research in Europe, but also from other continents, is presented in the more than 120, oral or poster, presentations. We can learn from them and increase our ability to preserve both wildlife and public health. We hope you will enjoy the conference and your stay in Italy!

Leucci, University of Trento, Department of Information Engineering and Computer Science, Via Sommarive, 9, Trento (ITA), [email protected] Abstract: The provision of public information contributes to the enrichment and enhancement of the data produced by the government as part of its activities, and the transformation of heterogeneous data into information and knowledge. This process of opening changes the operational mode of public administrations, leveraging the data management, encouraging savings and especially in promoting the development of services in subsidiary and collaborative form between public and private entities. The demand for new services also promotes renewed entrepreneurship centred on responding to new social and territorial needs through new technologies. In this sense we speak of Open Data as an enabling infrastructure for the development of innovation and as an instrument to the development and diffusion of Innovation and Communications Technology (ICT) in the public system as well as creating space for innovation for businesses, particularly SMEs, based on the exploitation of information assets of the territory.

  • Dual Use Technologies and Civilian Capabilities: Beyond Pooling and Sharing
    EU-CIVCAP Preventing and Responding to Conflict: Developing EU CIVilian CAPabilities for a sustainable peace Dual use technologies and civilian capabilities: Beyond pooling and sharing Deliverable 2.5 (Version 1.9; 25 September 2018) Andrea Aversano Stabile, Alessandro Marrone, Nicoletta Pirozzi and Bernardo Venturi This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement no. 653227. DL 2.5 Dual use technologies and civilian capabilities: Beyond pooling and sharing Summary of the Document Title DL 2.5 Dual use technologies and civilian capabilities: Beyond pooling and sharing Last modification 25 September 2018 State Final Version 1.9 Leading Partner IAI Other Participant Partners EU SatCen Authors Andrea Aversano Stabile, Alessandro Marrone, Nicoletta Pirozzi and Bernardo Venturi1 Audience Public Abstract This policy paper investigates how to increase the pooling and sharing (P&S) of civilian and military capabilities in light of recent EU developments. It sets out the P&S concept and process, and its application to civilian capabilities. Building on the findings of previous deliverables, the paper looks at potential areas for P&S: the sharing of training facilities, the pooling of experts and recruitment procedures; satellite systems; and remotely piloted aircraft systems. These are discussed in connection with EU developments such as the EU’s Global Strategy for Foreign and Security Policy. In particular, the paper considers the civilian compact (Common Security and Defence Policy), Permanent Structured Cooperation and the European Defence Fund as possible frameworks for P&S initiatives. Keywords ▪ Pooling and sharing ▪ Conflict prevention ▪ Peacebuilding ▪ PESCO ▪ Civilian CSDP compact 1 The authors wish to thank Yannick Arnaud and Jenny Erika Berglund at the EU Satellite Centre for their useful comments and inputs in the drafting of the paper.
