This annual and highly important event serves to review matters related to NDC academic programs and curricula; to advise the Commandant on ways to proceed with academic, research and outreach activities at the College; and to submit recommendations to the Military Committee (MC) for improving and enhancing College operations and activities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">This year, the AAB was chaired by the Chair of the Military Committee (CMC) Admiral Rob Bauer and attended by senior representatives from NATO HQ, ACT and ACO, along with a group of external members representing military, academic, scientific and diplomatic institutions, such as: Admiral Rob Bauer, Ambassador Baiba Bra\u017ee, Vice Admiral Guy Robinson, Major General Davide Re, Major General Francesco Diella, Mr Holger Osterrieder, Dr Bernard Finel, Professor Andrea Prencipe, Dr Jamie M. Johnson, Dr Pierre Razoux.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Lieutenant General Olivier Rittimann, Commandant of the NATO Defense College, led the delegation from the NATO Defense College accompanied by Heads of Divisions and other senior figures of the NDC. The Commandant officially opened the first session with welcome remarks and then gave the floor to the CMC who highlighted that \u201cthe AAB plays a fundamental role in support of the NDC\u2019s commitments, especially in advising the Commandant on ways to improve the College\u2019s activities as well as providing direction and guidance for its engagements and its research work plan\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">The two days of meetings, plenary discussions, and consolidation led to the Board\u2019s recommendations for 2023. The proposal focusses on a continual adjustment of the curriculum to new challenges. As remarked by Admiral Bauer, \u201cthe new security environment requires the NDC\u2019s curriculum to be flexible and to reflect a whole-of-government, and even a whole-of-society approach. Just like for the Alliance, we need to make sure that the College remains fit-for-purpose and responsive to today\u2019s and tomorrow\u2019s challenges\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><em>NDC Public Affairs Office<br \/>(Prepared by Ms Benedetta Cavagli\u00e1, ITA C)<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>52nd Academic Advisory Board Meeting The Academic Advisory Board of the NATO Defense College (NDC) convened its 52nd<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","editor_plus_copied_stylings":"{}","_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"post_badge":[],"class_list":["post-13539","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"featured_image_src":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"NDC","author_link":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/author\/admin_3rwqf6tj\/"},"modified_by":null,"author_meta":{"display_name":"NDC","author_link":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/author\/admin_3rwqf6tj\/"},"featured_img":null,"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","trp-custom-language-flag":"","morenews-featured":"","morenews-large":"","morenews-medium":""},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/category\/news\/\" rel=\"category tag\">News<\/a>","tag_info":"News","comment_count":0,"coauthors":[],"tax_additional":{"categories":{"linked":["<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/category\/news\/\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">News<\/a>"],"unlinked":["<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">News<\/span>"]}},"relative_dates":{"created":"Publi\u00e9 4 ans il y a","modified":"Mis \u00e0 jour 8 mois il y a"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Publi\u00e9 le novembre 25, 2022","modified":"Mise \u00e0 jour le janvier 15, 2026"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Publi\u00e9 le novembre 25, 2022 14:50","modified":"Mise \u00e0 jour le janvier 15, 2026 09:37"},"featured_img_caption":"","series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13539"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13539\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13539"},{"taxonomy":"post_badge","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_badge?post=13539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
