On the occasion of our 40th Anniversary next year, The Malaysian Embassy Helsinki earlier participated in an interactive session co-hosted by the Helsinki Diplomatic Association (HDA) together with the UNU-WIDER. The session allowed the institution to introduce the Institute and their current work.
UNU-WIDER is the largest UN entity based in Finland. Their 2024-2027 work programme aims at advancing knowledge on three significant global challenges:
(i) reducing persistent inequalities across and within countries,
(ii) building sustainable peace in conflict-affected countries, and
(iii) creating the fiscal space for development.
These efforts are executed thorough projects that connect research creation, capacity development, and policy engagements – both at global level as well as within specific country contexts. Malaysia looks forward to finding avenues for future collaboration and opportunity to work together to make this world a better place.
