Tuesday, November 29, 2022

The Arab American University participated in the international conference to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Twinning of University and Chairs Program of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization "UNESCO", which was held at the organization's headquarters in the French capital, Paris. It was entitled "Transforming Knowledge for a Fair and Sustainable Future".

This participation comes within the efforts of the National Committee to network between holders of "UNESCO" chairs in Palestine and their counterparts from various countries of the world. It also comes within the framework of its endeavor to expand the scientific presence of Palestinian higher education institutions in "UNESCO" by creating more scientific chairs in Palestinian universities in the fields that are specialized within the sectors of work and interests of "UNESCO".

The Arab American University was represented by the Dean of the Faculty of Data Science and holder of the UNESCO Chair in Data Science for Development, Dr. Majdi Owda, who participated along with the Palestinian delegation in the dialogue sessions specialized in the field of transforming education, scientific research, protecting cultural heritage, water science, open science, artificial intelligence, future technology, and other panel discussions dedicated to the National Commissions for UNESCO.
