The Knowledge Hub ACUTE will support the program EN-UAC and its projects by:

  • Helping to overcome the fragmentation of findings and experiences
  • Create a space for stakeholder exchange
  • Enable cross-project cooperation; consolidate and synthesise knowledge
  • Support practitioners, policy-makers and funders with the mainstreaming of research results; and
  • Provide strategic support for the Program DUT.
