Roundtables
The Roundtables organised by the UNESCO Chair in Education & Technology for Social Change are based on topics arising from the Chair’s areas of activity.
These are spaces for debate, the work dynamic of which consists of case studies, best practices and the exchange of experiences. The UNESCO Chair in Education & Technology for Social Change invites internationally acclaimed experts to share their knowledge and experience with the University’s teaching and administration personnel.
New topics of discussion and changes to university institutional dynamics are introduced through shared knowledge, helping progress along the path of continuous improvement. Their ultimate aim is to share, organise and create new knowledge between the UOC – seen as a community of teachers and professionals – and other institutions and professionals.
