United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, is a Specialized Agency of the United Nations. Its Constitution was adopted by the London Conference in November 1945, and entered into effect on 4 November 1946 when 20 States had deposited the instruments of acceptance.

In support of this objective, UNESCO's principal functions are:

To promote intellectual co-operation and mutual understanding of peoples through all means of mass communication;

To give fresh impulse to popular education and to the spread of culture;

To maintain, increase and diffuse knowledge;

To encourage scientific research and training;

To apply sciences to ensure human development and the rational management of natural resources.
