This honors one of the most diverse, influential and impactful scholars in the field of social sciences, Albert Otto Hirschman. Known for his foundational work in development economics and his unique approach to understanding social change, Hirschman’s life is characterized by a deep commitment to academic rigor with pragmatic problem-solving. His contributions spanned economics, politics, social change, and global development. The lectures will continue his internationalist spirit by fostering interdisciplinary conversations on some of the most pressing global challenges of our time.
Through the modality of an annual lecture, UNESCO presents a platform for high-caliber intellectuals and renowned scholars from various disciplines to discuss global issues in an interdisciplinary context. Reflecting Hirschman’s diverse academic scope, the lectures will not only help unpack complexities in economic and political challenges but also spur broader reflections on multilateralism and social change.
