The virtual exhibition is part of our project  Boosting European Security Law and Policy – BESEC.

VISIT THE 3D EXHIBITION

The BeSEC Project

The subject of security is a central aspect of the process of European integration. After the Lisbon Treaty, security constitutes a key aspect of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (including a Common Security and Defence Policy) and of a the European Area of Freedom, Security and Justice.
In light of these dynamics, this Project intends to support activities of information and dissemination of knowledge and skills with regard to the subject of security and its role in the process of European integration, involving public and private actors who can play a role in the different areas linked to the subject of security, such as policy-makers, business representatives, staff of public administration and, in general, stakeholders in the field of European security.

 

A partnership between FBK and the University of Siena

The BESEC project is carried out in collaboration between FBK and the University of Siena and involves other Italian and international partners including the Bank of Italy and the European Institute of Oncology in Milan.  The project is part of our Center’s mission on religion and innovation and of our contribution to FBK’s work on cybersecurity and the digital society.

The BeSEC Project has been funded by the European Commission within the Jean Monnet Actions.

The Jean Monnet Actions aim at promoting excellence in teaching and research in the field of European Union studies worldwide. These Actions also aim at fostering the dialogue between the academic world and policy-makers, in particular with the aim of enhancing EU and global governance.

European Union studies comprise the study of Europe in its entirety with particular emphasis on the European integration process in both its internal and external aspects. They promote active European citizenship and deal with the role of the EU in a globalised world, enhancing awareness of the Union and facilitating future engagement and people-to-people dialogue worldwide.

In particular, Jean Monnet Projects support innovation, cross-fertilisation and the spread of European Union content.

 

SECURITY LANDSCAPE
virtual exhibition by TerraProject photographers*

The visual investigation that TerraProject has carried out concerns the relationship between threats to security in contemporary European society and changes in the urban landscape. As threats and fears multiply, concrete actions to reduce risks or their perception become part of the collective imagination by integrating into the landscape as new physical presences, signs, barriers and conventions that materialize the need for security, in countries that according to the data they are actually increasingly secure. What does the landscape we have built express? What message will we leave to future generations through it? These are some of the questions that arise from the “Security Landscape”.
