UNU-INTECH renamed UNU-MERIT

On 1 January 2006, United Nations University Institute for New Technologies, UNU-INTECH was formally integrated with the former Maastricht Economic Research Institute on Innovation and Technology, MERIT, at Maastricht University. The two former institutes are now known as the Maastricht Economic and social Research and Training centre on Innovation and Technology, UNU-MERIT (press release).

UNU-INTECH was established by the Council of United Nations University in October 1990 as a research and training centre devoted to the economic and social implications of new technologies. UNU-MERIT will continue to pursue this mission, while expanding the scope of analysis to cover developing, as well as industrialized countries.

This website is maintained as a repository of UNU-INTECH research outputs upto December 2005.
