Successful applicants will work full-time on SIERA Project, and will be selected to conduct PhD research in one of the project’s related research fields. Selected students will conduct their PhD at Sina Institute, and being officially registered in prestige EU Universities (one of SIERA Project Partners). That is, PhD students will be co-supervised by both EU and Palestinian scientists, and their research topics will be the same or very close to their project duties. Students are expected to spend about 3 months a year with their EU co-supervisors and the rest of their time at Sina Institute.

The project’s aim is to reinforce closer and sustainable scientific cooperation between Palestinian and EU scientists in the field of multilingual and multicultural knowledge sharing technologies. The diversity of languages, cultures, and standards are the main barriers to sharing and consuming knowledge. All project activates are focused around establishing new research in this field. Two EU multilingual knowledge sharing portals have been selected as a concrete test-bed for the targeted research. The first, MICHAEL, is a cultural heritage portal which provides a multilingual service to explore digital collections from museums, archives, libraries and other cultural institutions from across Europe. The second, KYOTO, is a wiki-portal about environment and ecology. The key idea is to use both portals to investigate how to enable large-scale knowledge sharing portals with Arabic language and content. In doing this, a digitalized repository of Palestinian Cultural Heritage and another repository in the environment domain will be provided and added to the knowledge sharing portals.
