The research aims to analyse the role of Unrra, Unesco and Fao in planning a new global order since World War II based on Education, Science and management of the Environment, looking at the expertise and proposals of their workers. The research will focus on the sustainable and inclusive vision of global development of those United Nations agencies during one of the worst historical catastrophes observing the international circulation of technicians, agents and scientists inside those institutions through a prosopographical study and their programs of relief. The project will contribute to the history of humanitarianism through a prosopographical approach instead of the usual institutional one. It looks at the stories of UN agencies’ workers to understand how they realise their principal mandates on a global dimension. Moreover, the research sheds light on the scientific and cultural heritage of the UN agencies’ global planning, humanitarian practices, and sustainable development projects. The objective is to understand their potential global contribution to two of the current political priorities of the European Union: creating a more resilient, inclusive and democratic European society and making Europe the first digitally-enabled circular, climate-neutral and sustainable economy. Comparative use of United Nations sources in New York, Unesco archives in Paris and the Fao ones in Rome will produce the first global development planners and technicians database. The dataset shared on a web portal will collect biographical information about UN agency workers and their projects. The web-based research environment will be openly accessible to historians, social scientists, policymakers, stakeholders, students, teachers and a wider public, opening new possibilities in the analysis of humanitarianism and the World History of the 20th century and the production of sustainable and rightful public policies.ver más
