2.6: Resources
Mobilizing additional resources for the University Other Information:
A key constraint to the further development of the UN University remains its limited human and financial resources. While
significant support is being generated for specific research and teaching initiatives, the University must strengthen its
capacity to mobilize and leverage new and unrestricted contributions from governments, development assistance agencies, foundations
and private sector sources. The specialized and decentralized nature of the UNU system presents specific challenges for developing
and operating a professionalized development department that is increasingly a part of most universities. It will be crucial
for the UN University to strengthen its fund raising capacity in the near and long term to support the new twin institute
initiative as well as the deployment of UNU graduate degree programmes.
