TV Channel Overview
TV UNAM is a Spanish-language public cultural television channel operated by the National Autonomous University of Mexico (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México; UNAM) and based in Mexico City, Mexico. It serves audiences across the country with programming that reflects the university's educational, scientific, cultural, and artistic work.
Its schedule gives particular attention to the arts, humanities, science, social and political reflection, and contemporary cultural issues. Documentaries, interviews, discussion programs, lectures, performances, film-related programming, and coverage of university activities connect academic and cultural subjects with a broader public audience. Debate on topics such as equality, diversity, violence, and climate change also forms part of its cultural and social programming.
UNAM's television operation began in 1985 as a production unit for audiovisual and educational materials. TV UNAM started broadcasting through its own channel in 2005 with national coverage. The service was known for a period as TEVE UNAM and adopted the TV UNAM name in 2016, continuing the university's television and audiovisual work.
