ABOUT THE COMMITTEE
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) was established in 1945 in the aftermath of World War II, with the goal of fostering international collaboration through education, science, and culture. Headquartered in Paris, France, UNESCO has become a global organization dedicated to building peace and promoting sustainable development by addressing inequalities in education, preserving cultural heritage, and advancing scientific progress.
UNESCO’s primary objectives are to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education for all, safeguard cultural and natural heritage, and promote freedom of expression and scientific cooperation. Through its initiatives, UNESCO aims to foster mutual understanding among nations, empower marginalized communities, and address global challenges such as climate change, inequality, and conflicts.
