Implementing body of UNESCO Chair's activities is the Laboratory of Geocultural Analysis (GeoLab) of the Department FLTI. In addition to the staff of the Laboratory, the Chair is enriched by an international interdisciplinary team of scholars and researchers forming the Steering and Scientific Committies.
