The University of Carthage has recently launched a new platform that aims to bring together researchers and students interested in artificial intelligence, international finance, climate financing, environment, and financial justice. This initiative was announced by University of Carthage President, Nadia Mezouhi Aguir, during an appearance on the radio program "Voût al-Talaba" on Thursday, November 5, 2026. The platform is part of the university's efforts to enhance its academic offerings and research capabilities.

President Aguir expressed her pride in being elected as the head of the Regional Conference C2R, affiliated with the Francophone Agency for Northern Africa. She considers this election a source of pride and responsibility, allowing the university to further strengthen its position nationally, internationally, and regionally. The University of Carthage prioritizes providing high-quality education and supporting employable specializations.

The university is committed to deepening its partnerships nationally and internationally, including collaborations with Russian, Chinese, and Central Asian universities. President Aguir highlighted the excellence of research competencies at the University of Carthage, particularly noting the global recognition of three researchers from the Higher Institute of Applied Sciences and Technology. The University of Carthage has a strong reputation, ranking first nationally in sustainable development according to the international Ui Green Metric ranking.

The new platform launched by the University of Carthage aims to support researchers and students in exploring the intersections of artificial intelligence, finance, and environmental sustainability. This initiative aligns with the university's goals of promoting innovative research and addressing pressing global challenges. By providing a dedicated platform for these topics, the university hopes to foster collaboration and knowledge-sharing among its community.
