To consider our future through U.N Activities

*A post event on the theme of development aid is also scheduled to be held on Saturday, November 11th.

Sophia University UN Weeks, started in 2014 based on the idea “to consider the world and our future through the work of the UN,” is now approaching its 20th anniversary. We plan many events both in person and online in a HyFlex format in order to reach out to a wider audience.
We will welcome a diverse group of internationally renowned guests to cover a broad range of topics, including AI, humanitarian aid, education, as well as the environment. High school / college students as well as working adults are welcome to join anytime that works the best.
