2.5: Communication
Improving internal and external communication Other Information:
The UN University faces a number of challenges as a decentralized organization of research and training centres and programmes.
Among these is maintaining good communication within the University system while at the same time presenting a consistent
and continuous stream of communication to its key stakeholders in the public and private sectors and with United Nations Member
States. Strengthening cooperation and communication among UNU institutes will have a beneficial effect on the cogency of the
University as a whole. To reach its external audiences, the UNU needs to upgrade its communications methods and tools, continue
to refine its target markets, and tailor its outputs accordingly. The University is focused on engaging scholars, practitioners,
policy makers, and the general public through a combination of discourse and dialogue. Each has different interests and concerns,
and these frequently require different messages and communications methods. Therefore, UNU will increasingly focus on contextualizing
its outputs in order to convey more effectively the benefits of its activities in terms most relevant to its audiences. UNU
will continue to use various languages in order to broaden its ability to communicate appropriately.
