University Members

The UNESCO Chair is looking to develop institutional agreements with partner universities, faculties and departments. These will in part showcase ongoing work on activism and protection, but will also leverage new initiatives and commitments. A Memorandum of Understanding to work together with the UNESCO Chair to enhance the roles that universities play as sites of activism and protection has been signed by:

  • University of York

  • University of the Western Cape
