In its teaching capacity the UNESCO Chair focuses first and foremost on MA and PhD levels. We complement the existing curricula in the fields of ethnology, folkloristics, and cultural management, including the English language MA program “Folkloristics and Applied Heritage Studies“.
Together with students from all corners of the world, we study and discuss how to employ traditional knowledge and skills for addressing current and future challenges.
The Chair also brings visiting lecturers to Tartu, notably from other UNESCO Chairs and elsewhere. We are also planning to create an international postdoctoral program in cooperation with other universities, to enable an enriching international exchange.
