Abstract
This paper provides insights on the adoption or use of OpenCourseWare (OCW)
to support broader research, training and institutional capacity development goals,
based on the experience of the United Nations University. Specifically, it explains
the strategic context for the use of OCW in the university through its related efforts
in the area of Virtual and Open Learning, and how OCW fits these requirements.
Finally, the paper presents the current status, and discusses challenges and future
directions of the OCW project at the United Nations University.
