UNIL is a member of the Worldwide Universities Network since 2020. A call for projects is launched every year in July, with a deadline in October.
Three UNIL projects were selected in the framework of the 2021 call:
- JIR-CliPS: comparison of Clinical Practice Strategies in Juvenile Inflammatory Diseases between 4 world regions, the first WUN project to be led by UNIL with Prof. Michaël Hofer (Faculty of biology and Medicine) as principal investigator;
- Sexuality across cultures: International Sex Survey in South Africa, Switzerland, and Taiwan, a project led by National Cheng Kung University in Taiwan, with the contribution of Prof. Joël Billieux (Faculty of Social and Political Sciences);
