NEW YORK<\/span>, Sept. 14, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE\/ — At a time when artificial intelligence is transforming the way the world learns, works, and communicates, Peruvian executive C\u00e9sar Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez<\/b> brought a message to the United Nations headquarters in New York focused on one of the defining challenges of our time: ensuring that technological advancement expands opportunities rather than deepens inequalities.<\/p>\n \n Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez, Brand Manager and representative of C\u00e9sar Vallejo University (UCV)<\/b>, participated as a speaker at the 20th International Human Rights Summit<\/b>, an international gathering that brought together diplomats, youth leaders, educators, government representatives, human rights advocates, and civil society organizations from dozens of countries.<\/p>\n During his remarks, he emphasized that education remains one of the most powerful tools for advancing equality and noted that access to knowledge must increasingly be understood as a fundamental right in a society being reshaped by artificial intelligence and rapid digital transformation.<\/p>\n “Technology can become an extraordinary tool for closing gaps and democratizing opportunities, but that progress must be accompanied by education, ethics, inclusion, and access. True progress occurs when knowledge also reaches those who have historically had fewer opportunities,” Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez said.<\/b><\/p>\n Under the theme “Education for Peace: A 25-Year Legacy,”<\/b> the gathering also commemorated the 25th anniversary of Youth for Human Rights International (YHRI)<\/b>.<\/p>\n The organization is led by Dr. Mary Shuttleworth<\/b>, internationally recognized for her work promoting human rights education among young people and communities around the world. Together with United for Human Rights<\/b>, the organization has established the Summit as a forum that connects new generations with international leaders committed to human dignity, education, and peace.<\/p>\n The 2026 edition brought together representatives from 82 nations<\/b> and included diplomats, educators, judges, legislators, social leaders, and representatives connected to the international Nobel Peace Prize movement.<\/p>\n Among the voices and organizations associated with the gathering were representatives of the Permanent Secretariat of the World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates<\/b>, an organization established at the initiative of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Mikhail Gorbachev<\/b>. The Summit also highlighted the leadership of Timor-Leste President and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Jos\u00e9 Ramos-Horta<\/b>, internationally recognized for his longstanding commitment to peace, reconciliation, and human rights.<\/p>\n The gathering also brought together figures representing significant international legacies in peace and human rights, including Tebogo Joy Ngoma<\/b>, granddaughter of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Desmond Tutu<\/b> and founder of Brave Hearts for Multimedia<\/b>, who continues that legacy through education, storytelling, and social transformation. Also participating was renowned humanitarian Queen Mother Dr. Delois Blakely<\/b>, Community Mayor of Harlem and founder of the New Future Foundation<\/b>, a longtime advocate for human rights, education, and community development, who opened the Summit’s second day with a blessing.<\/p>\n C\u00e9sar Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez’s participation at the United Nations comes at a time of growing international visibility for his work in the education sector through UCV.<\/p>\n Through various executive roles connected to C\u00e9sar Vallejo University, an institution founded in Peru in 1991, Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez has participated for years in initiatives related to education, innovation, marketing, digital transformation, and international expansion.<\/p>\n The university was founded with a vision centered on expanding access to higher education. More than three decades later, it has broadened its presence and developed an academic ecosystem that incorporates new technologies and digital tools.<\/p>\n For Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez, that experience also provides a platform from which to look toward the future.<\/p>\n “For years, we have witnessed how education can transform not only the life of a student, but also the lives of an entire family and community. The next challenge is to ensure that technology, artificial intelligence, and education work together to further democratize those opportunities.”<\/b><\/p>\n His vision for the future of education has taken on an increasingly technological dimension. In 2025, Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez represented UCV at HPE Discover in Las Vegas<\/b>, one of the leading international gatherings focused on artificial intelligence, connectivity, digital infrastructure, and technological transformation.<\/p>\n That intersection of education, technology, and access to knowledge is now part of a new phase in the expansion of Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez and UCV’s presence in the United States.<\/p>\n He is currently working on the development and expansion of new educational and technology initiatives aimed at the U.S. market, with particular attention to the opportunities that artificial intelligence, digital education, and emerging professional skills can create for students, entrepreneurs, and Hispanic communities. Details and the identity of these new programs will be announced soon.<\/p>\n The initiative seeks to bring some of the experience accumulated over the years in the Latin American education sector to a market where the Hispanic community continues to grow and where technology-focused education will play an increasingly important role in economic and professional mobility.<\/p>\n For Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez, the conversation that began at the United Nations extends far beyond a single conference.<\/p>\n “We cannot talk about the future of human rights without talking about the right to learn, to access knowledge, and to participate in technological transformation. Artificial intelligence will change the world; our responsibility is to work to ensure that this new world includes everyone.”<\/b><\/p>\n His participation in the 20th International Human Rights Summit<\/b> thus marks a new phase in his international positioning, where education, technology, leadership, and social impact converge around a shared premise: knowledge can be one of the great democratizing forces of the 21st century.<\/b><\/p>\n About\u00a0C\u00e9sar Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez<\/b><\/p>\n C\u00e9sar Acu\u00f1a N\u00fa\u00f1ez<\/b>\u00a0is a Peruvian executive with extensive experience in the education sector, branding, innovation, and international development.
