This UNIDO self-paced e-learning course on South-South and Triangular Industrial Cooperation (SSTIC) offers a comprehensive overview of these development cooperation modalities, emphasizing their role in advancing sustainable development. The course is designed to be completed in 60-90 minutes and includes real-world case studies to illustrate key concepts.

Key learning objectives include understanding the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the BAPA+40 Outcome Document, UNIDO’s SSTIC Operational Guidelines and the integration of SSTIC into broader development frameworks. The course aims to enhance participants' abilities to evaluate, communicate, and apply SSTIC initiatives effectively.

The course is divided into four interactive modules:

  1. SSTIC Essentials: Covers foundational concepts, including definitions, principles, and the role of SSTIC within the UN and UNIDO.
  2. From Theory to Action: SSTIC Policy Frameworks: Discusses important policy documents, UN strategies, and funding mechanisms.
  3. Ensuring the Success of SSTIC Projects: Focuses on participants' roles, operational guidelines, project classification, and includes case studies.
  4. Final Assessment: Concludes the course with an evaluation of the participants' understanding.

This course is particularly relevant due to SSTIC's growing importance in project management.
