The programme supports the establishment of UNESCO Chairs and UNITWIN Networks in key priority areas related to UNESCO\u2019s fields of competence \u2013 i.e. in education, the natural and social sciences, culture and communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through this network, higher education and research institutions all over the globe pool their resources, both human and material, to address pressing challenges and contribute to the development of their societies. In many instances, the networks and chairs serve as thinktanks and bridgebuilders between academia, civil society, local communities, research and policy-making. They have proven useful in informing policy decisions, establishing new teaching initiatives, generating innovation through research and contributing to the enrichment of existing university programmes while promoting cultural diversity. In areas lacking expertise, chairs and networks have evolved into poles of excellence and innovation at regional or sub-regional levels. They also contribute to strengthening North-South-South cooperation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Launched in 1992, the UNITWIN\/UNESCO Chairs Programme, which involves over 850 institutions in 117 countries, promotes international inter-university cooperation and&hellip;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-dark btn-sm unipi-read-more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/?page_id=22\">Leggi tutto&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-22","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=22"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":171,"href":"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22\/revisions\/171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/unescochair.unipi.it\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=22"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
