Strategic orientation
Being a leading player in science diplomacy
Politecnico di Milano aspires to be a leading player in science diplomacy, both in the sense of science for diplomacy - science as a strategic axis in international cooperation - and science in diplomacy - the University as a driver of informed policies for sustainable development with a global impact.
In the 2023-25 period we will: consolidate paradigms for international cooperation in research and institutional capacity building, with specific focus on the African continent; train young people in the ability to inform 'policies' using the outcomes of scientific research; actively participate in key networks and think tanks as a means to help bridge the gap between science and policymaking.
