Following the vote on the motion condemning the university’s chronic underfunding and calling on the government to make a sustained investment in higher education and research, Université Côte d'Azur launched a communication campaign featuring nine visuals, each conveying a powerful message to raise awareness about the importance of investing in the university.
In its motion, the Board of Directors calls on the government to allocate additional, long-term funding to cover the actual cost of national measures affecting staff and to ensure the continuity of public higher education and research services.
Without a financial commitment commensurate with the challenges at stake, Université Côte d’Azur believes it can no longer sustainably fulfill all of its missions under satisfactory conditions.
