United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)

Summary

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) is a specialised agency of the United Nations that works to promote peace and sustainable development through international cooperation in education, science, culture, and communication. Established in 1945, UNESCO supports countries in developing policies and institutions that foster inclusive education, protect cultural and natural heritage, advance scientific research, and strengthen freedom of expression. Sustainability is a cross-cutting priority in UNESCO’s work, including climate change education, biodiversity protection, ocean science, and the decarbonisation of cultural and public institutions. Through initiatives such as renewable energy projects at heritage sites, UNESCO demonstrates how environmental responsibility can be integrated into cultural preservation and public sector operations, contributing to global net-zero and resilience goals.
