In an era when knowledge – increasingly – is power, the UN in Iran is playing its role to ensure that the volume of knowledge housed in the UN’s online systems is made easily accessible to Iranians. This is part of the regular work of the UN Information Centre.
In Line with this, State Management Training Centre (SMTC) affiliated to the Vice-President’s Office for Management and Human Capital Development with cooperation of the United Nations Information Centre (UNIC) held a workshop on “Finding UN Information” for some 70 Managers of different Vice-President Offices on 6 November 2013. SMTC’s Director Dr. Ebrahim Moussazadeh was among the participants.
