CIFAL Málaga-University of Peace Meeting
The University for Peace (UPEACE) was established as a Treaty Organization with its own Charter in an International Agreement adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations through its Resolution 35/55 of 5 December 1980. This unique history of UPEACE makes it the only University in the world created through a UN General Assembly Resolution with the specific mandate of “engaging in teaching, research, post-graduate training and dissemination of knowledge fundamental to the full development of the human person and societies through the interdisciplinary study of all matters relating to peace.” As a result, it possesses a unique global legal authorization to grant Master’s and Doctoral degrees as conferred upon it by the resolution that created it as well as by the International Agreement for the Establishment of UPEACE
The University for Peace (UPAZ) and the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) have partnered to offer a portfolio of master's degree and certificate programs that combine the academic strength of UPAZ with the world-class executive-style training of UNITAR. Taught by UN staff, diplomats, practitioners, and academics, all programs offer information about the UN and the opportunity to experience it first-hand and are highly focused on post-graduate professional development.
