  • allowing mutual access to relevant documents and provide additional handouts and support;
  • inviting respective experts in order to support the development/update of relevant doctrine;
• performing joint analysis missions to collect and evaluate information to conceive lessons learned products;
• participating in the respective events, conferences, forums and workshops, providing lecturers as needed, subject to availability;
• cooperating in the conduct of courses, providing Subject Matter Experts for dedicated modules;
• participating in the respective courses, subject to seat availability and possibly free of charge;
• participating in exercises, in order to identify and then share early warning signs, opportunities and vulnerabilities, prepare society and facilitate debates and cooperation;
• participating in common doctrinal efforts from the perspective of the transfer of expertise between the government sector, the business community, the civil society and the academic community;
• social media interactions and article/analysis publishing in journals and publications kept by each party.
