  • study information

As a new student in a strange city, you will be undergoing many changes: a new study, new city, new country, new social life, new responsibilities, new language, new system of teaching and learning. How do things work at this university, where is the library, what is the city of Maastricht like and who are my fellow-students? These are just a few of the changes that you will have to cope with. The Introduction Days are intended to give you a better idea of the various aspects Maastricht University’s Bachelor's programmes.

Research Project

About the project

European stakeholders face significant variability in addressing vaccination hesitancy and implementing COVID-19 vaccination campaigns among healthcare providers and the general population. Challenges include widespread hesitancy within the population and variations in the communication skills of healthcare providers. To address these issues, cross-country initiatives play a crucial role in knowledge-sharing, especially considering the observed differences in vaccine coverage during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The co-OPERATOR project seeks to capitalize on research findings by developing and piloting a knowledge hub, virtual observatory, and training system across participating countries and beyond. This proof-of-concept initiative aims to gather, structure, and disseminate knowledge, best practices, and resources related to stakeholders' strategies for COVID-19 vaccination and beyond. The primary focus lies in advancing communication and knowledge skills while addressing systemic barriers and facilitators for effectively promoting vaccination messages to the population.

Role of Maastricht University

Maastricht University will lead work Package 6: Translate research evidence to policy recommendations. Within this package we will work on identifying the policy landscape including potential obstacles and challenges for the implementation and transfer of good practices . Furthermore policy Lab will be organised in Brussels aiming to bridge the gap between research and policy. At the end of the project a report on the acceptability, feasibility and usability of identified solutions will be written.

Consortium

The consortium engaged in this project conducted research that uncovered:

  • differing success levels in conveying vaccination messages to the population, underscoring the need to enhance stakeholders' capabilities in vaccination promotion, and
  • the intricate nature of vaccination hesitancy, necessitating collaboration across diverse entities, ranging from healthcare professionals to local governments.

Are consumers well protected in cloud computing contracts?

  • Law

Every time consumers use online email, stream music or videos or archive pictures on the internet, it is quite likely that they are using cloud computing. Those online pictures, videos or emails are not stored on consumer’s computers. Instead, they are processed and stored on a group of remotely located computers accessed over the internet, referred to as “the cloud”. While cloud computing can offer consumers a similar, or even better, experience compared to the situation when videos, music or pictures are stored locally on users’ own computers, cloud computing raises some interesting legal questions. These concern the rights of consumers when they enter into contracts with companies providing cloud computing products.
