The Ubuntu Alliance, in its meeting in April 2006 in Yokohama, established the Committee of Peers for RCEs. This Committee reviews applications for new RCEs and provides recommendations to UNU during the RCE acknowledgement process. The United Nations University Institute for the Advanced Study of Sustainability (UNU-IAS) acts as Secretariat of the Ubuntu Alliance. 

Organisations that are interested in initiating the RCE process and applying to become an RCE are requested to submit an application and an application summary by 15 May, 2022 (11:59pm JST) to UNU-IAS.
