The PRIN project, through the Centro Alti Studi Difesa, benefits from a collaboration with the Network of European Strategic Studies Institutions (NESSI). These are institutions closely tied to or part of the defense establishments of their respective countries, committed to cooperating in the development of a common European strategic culture while respecting national differences. The principles of NESSI are implemented through the mutual exchange of researchers, the development of joint research projects and publications, as well as the creation of a shared vision on defense and security topics within a synergistic network among States.
