Community

More action for a better understanding

Creating a UNESCO Chair for Communication, Media and Information Literacy and Citizenship improves ESCS’ relationship with the community, the city and its different institutions, and increases the visibility of both the School and IPL. The mission of the Chair will exemplify ESCS perspectives on communication, media literacy and citizenship through the involvement of teaching staff, researchers and students in project and society development.
