In this document, we provide the methodological background for the Safety atWork project. This document combines several project deliverables as defined inthe overall project plan: validation techniques and methods (D5.1.1), performanceindicators for safety at work (D5.1.2), personal protection equipment methods(D2.1.2), situational awareness methods (D3.1.2), and persuasive technology methods(D4.1.2).

Het lectoraat wil komen tot gezonde en veilige voedingsmiddelen voor doelgroepen die verschillen in voedingsbehoefte. Voeding is een ketenproduct. Verduurzaming van die keten is een tweede zwaartepunt. Een derde taak ligt in de netwerkfunctie en het steunen van regionale ontwikkelingen. Het lectoraat is actief in het toepassen van fundamentele kennis samen met het MKB. Anne Schaafsma is sinds 1978 in dienst bij FrieslandCampina en bekleedt sinds 2000 de functie van Senior Scientist Nutrition. Schaafsma is gespecialiseerd in kindervoeding en de invloed die het heeft op de ontwikkeling van hersenen en immuunsysteem. Als lector is Anne Schaafsma voor 2,5 dag per week bij Van Hall Larenstein in Leeuwarden gedetacheerd. Binnen het lectoraat werken de lector Food Safety (Anne Schaafsma) en associate lector Health & Food (Feike van der Leij) nauw samen. De lectoren willen fundamentele kennis benutten om te komen tot gezondere voedingsmiddelen voor doelgroepen die verschillen in leeftijd en voedingsbehoefte. Het betreft vooral kennis over moleculaire processen in het menselijk lichaam en de invloed van voedingscomponenten daarop.

Objectives: Current study explores the potential of the safety rating scale in order to determine the surplus value for evidence based practise. This study wants to contribute to this knowledge gape by exploring the safety scale by analysing the change between two safety ratings. First, the absolute change in safety is investigated. Secondly the study explores to what extent family background characteristics and case management characteristics determine the extent of change in perceived safety. Materials and Methods: The study analysed 105 Dutch child protection cases who had registration files with filled out LIRIK checklist, Action Plan and additional baseline safety and end safety measure as perceived by case managers. Results: On average perceived safety increased from an insufficient level to sufficient level. Significant regression coefficients with larger changes for primary school children (6 - 12 years) and lower changes for children within the ‘socio economic problems cluster’. The results reveal significant vulnerability for preschool children and families attending the socio-economic cluster due to limited improvement. Conclusion: According to this study the safety measure can be of value to outcome monitoring. The safety measure is a practical measure that reflects on the current state of safety within a family according to professionals and can be used on several occasions during case management. In addition, on aggregated level pre and post measures can be analysed for quality management purpose. Further exploration of this measure is needed.

In 2021, Citython editions were held for the European cities of Eindhoven (Netherlands), Bilbao and Barcelona (Spain), Hamburg (Germany), and Lublin (Poland). Within this project, BUAS contributed to the organization of CITYTHON Eindhoven in cooperation with CARNET (an initiative by CIT UPC) and City of Eindhoven – an event which gives young talent the opportunity to work with mentors and experts for the development of innovative urban solutions. Participants of CITYTHON Eindhoven worked on three challenges:- Traffic safety in school zones - Travel to the campus- Make the city healthy The event took place between 18 May and 2 June 2021 with various experts, for example from ASML, City of Eindhoven and University of Amsterdam, giving inspirational talks and mentoring students throughout the ideation and solutions development process. The teams presented their solutions during the Dutch Technology Week and the winners were announced by Monique List-de Roos (Alderman Mobility and Transport, City of Eindhoven) on 2 June 2021. The role of BUAS within this project was to assist City of Eindhoven with the development of the challenges to be tackled by the participating teams, and find relevant speakers and mentors who would be supporting the students for the development of their solutions and jury members who would determine the winning teams. The project ended with a round table “Green and Safe Mobility for all: 5 Smart City(thon) Case studies” on November 17 organized as part of Smart City Expo World Congress 2021 in Barcelona. This project is funded by EIT Urban Mobility, an initiative of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union. EIT Urban Mobility acts to accelerate positive change on mobility to make urban spaces more livable.

Using technology to improve the adolescents' journey to school by bike in province of Drenthe and Groningen.All unsafe area that children spotted on the map, are because the lack of traffic safety ( lack of visibility, high speed, etc). In general children do not have a positive perception of cycling to school, and their favourite mode of traveling to school is car. What technology based intervention can make adolescents’ cycling to and from school safer and more attractive for them? Also does it help to encourage those who live far from the school (>10 km) to cycle to and from school more often?
Hoewel de politie de laatste jaren fors heeft geïnvesteerd in financiële en digitale expertise, vormt de razendsnelle digitalisering van de samenleving een voortdurende uitdaging bij de aanpak van innovatieve (cyber)criminele verdienmethoden. Om die uitdaging het hoofd te bieden is de (door)ontwikkeling van kennis en 21st century skills van politiemensen essentieel. Politie Noord Nederland en het lectoraat Cybersafety van NHL Hogeschool en de Politieacademie hebben daarom het plan opgevat om een leer- en experimenteeromgeving te ontwikkelen waarin politie-experts en studenten gezamenlijk innovatieve (cyber)criminele verdienmethoden identificeren alsook handelingsstrategieën daar¬tegen. Geëvalueerd wordt in hoeverre deze learning community bijdraagt aan de ontwikkeling van kennis en 21st century skills voor de aanpak van innovatieve (cyber)criminele verdienmethoden.
