The SUDAC programme (swissuniversities Development and Cooperation Network) aims to support collaboration between Swiss universities and their partners in the South and to develop projects of excellence in education, research and innovation. UNIL has now joined the programme from 2021 for a period of four years (2021-2024). The Management has appointed Prof. René Véron as UNIL’s representative in the Assembly. He will participate in the reflection sessions on the structure of the programme for the years 2021-24.
The 5 existing clusters of cooperation (CLOCs) are encouraged to expand their partnerships (in Switzerland) and must submit a proposal for activities planned until 2024 (deadline 16 April 2021).
Interested researchers are invited to contact the head of the CLOC concerned directly if they wish to participate. A description of the various CLOCs and the contact details of the persons responsible can be found on this page.
The Knowledge 2 Action Online Academy is supported by this programme. It aims as fostering work on the SDGs, especially climate change, waste management and biodiversity. It targets Master and PhD students as well as post-docs. Check details and eligibility on UNIL ACTU here !
