The series is an online repository (LINK) of 15-minute video lectures that makes available the knowledge of world renowned scholars, experts, and leading UN-Habitat staff.

 

The lectures focus on thematic areas that connects closely with UN-Habitat’s mandate and priorities, presenting a sound analysis of a problem and the propositions to resolve it, drawing on concrete examples and empirical evidences that demonstrate how such propositions actually work, are being tested or have been implemented.

The videos are useful products to be used in various forms e.g. (1) self-learning and as a refresher course; (2) addition to existing curricula and regular courses offered by universities and training institutions; (3) resource for new curricula and course development.
