Understood as whole-societal task, this is only to be resolved in common. The cooperation in developing tasks is therefore of central importance for the UCCU and consequently also the support and the strengthening of the cooperation with countries and institutions from the global South. Recent experiences with universities from Latin America, from the near East, from East Asia and Subsahara-Africa as well as with global institutions focussing on cooperation for development, will be the starting point for future intentions of the institute.
