In addition to the Faculty's core institutes, the UNESCO Chair on Global Understanding for Sustainability, which was founded in May 2018, is also affiliated with the Faculty of Social and Behavioral Sciences.

The Chair is dedicated to pressing issues of our time: sustainability and sustainability policy. Global understanding” is the guiding idea here. The term refers to a way of thinking that is organized around three core elements: thinking together the (1) local and the global, focusing on (2) everyday practices and (3) Transdisciplinarity.
