The UNESCO Campuses are conference-debates during which young people aged 13 to 18 can ask questions to UNESCO experts and personalities from civil society on subjects relating to UNESCO's mandates. Through the UNESCO Campuses, we put the expertise of our teams and our partners at the service of young people, to broaden their understanding of global issues, develop their critical thinking, enrich their reflection on the fields the Organization works.
