UNITA can contribute to the development of rural and mountain areas through promoting the value of the natural resources for renewable energy, developing networks of circular economy (including bio-economy), linking different economic activities (agriculture, tourism, industry and crafts), promoting the richness of the cultural and linguistic heritage, and optimizing the relationship among the different actors of each ecosystem.
The hubs from each thematic areas are:
Renewable energy: energy transition and resource management.
Circular economy: including Bio-economy: networking and opening-up of economies.
Cultural heritage: enhancement of the heritage and identity of the territories.
To promote knowledge, growth and pedagogical approaches, best practices are identified through the exchange of information, methods, and techniques between different Universities. Teaching & Learning Centers (T&L Centers) provide lecturers and teachers with the tools and training to strengthen the student-centered approach.
The Hub of Success is a specific UNITA organization for supporting students on the internationalization of their study path. It comprises the following services:
Advise students on how to plan mobility based on the matrix of recognizable activities related to the 3 strategic thematics: cultural heritage, circular economy, renewable energy;
Educational counselling and monitoring of students participating in physical mobility;
Support students in the identification and the formal recognition of skills related to an international mobility experience.
