It is now a fact that the Agricultural University of Athens (AUA) is, henceforth, a member of the United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI). This Organisation is the result of the initiative taken by the Outreach Division of the United Nations Department of Global Communication, which aligns educational and research Institutions with the United Nations principles for further producing global prosperity, enhancing progress and crisis management. Within this framework, 1,500 Institutions coming from 147 countries, cooperate with the United Nations in order to promote peace, human rights and sustainable development, being recognised as top priorities worldwide.

Furthermore, it has as a fruitful objective the creation of a dynamic international collaboration, with a view to fostering a new culture, governed by a strong sense of an intellectual social responsibility. Needless to say that, fundamental rules and values, such as the freedom of expression and speech, the unhindered participation into education, as well as the unobstructed setting of open communication channels and dialogue forms, constitute the basis of this partnership.
