A new UN e-learning initiative, launched on December 6th in Berlin, will
offer developing countries opportunities to draw upon a rich array of
training and capacity-building resources.

Sixteen UN agencies, meeting at a forum organised by the United Nations
Environment Programme (UNEP) during Online Educa Berlin, agreed to establish
UNeLearn – a UN-wide network on technology-supported learning to share

e-learning.

The UNeLearn network will provide targeted training and outreach to help UN
country teams implement common programmes for work in over 160 developing
countries.
