'''युनेस्को''' ('''United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization''') is a specialized agency of the [[United Nations]] established in 1945. Its stated purpose is to contribute to [[peace]] and [[security]] by promoting international [[collaboration]] through [[education]], [[science]], and [[culture]] in order to further universal [[respect]] for [[justice]], the [[rule of law]], and the [[human rights]] and fundamental [[Freedom (political)|freedoms]] proclaimed in the [[United Nations Charter|UN Charter]].[http://portal.unesco.org/en/ev.php-URL_ID=15244&URL_DO=DO_TOPIC&URL_SECTION=201.html]
 
In total, 191 nations belong to UNESCO. The organization is based in [[Paris]], with over 50 field offices and several institutes and offices throughout the world. Most of the field offices are "cluster" offices covering three or more countries; there are also national and regional offices. UNESCO pursues its action through five major programmes: education, natural sciences, social and human sciences, culture, and communication and information. Projects sponsored by UNESCO include [[literacy]], technical, and teacher-training programmes; international [[science]] programmes; the promotion of independent [[News media|media]] and [[freedom of the press]]; regional and cultural [[history]] projects, the promotion of [[cultural diversity]]; international cooperation agreements to secure the world cultural and natural [[heritage]] and to preserve [[human rights]]; and attempts to bridge the world-wide [[digital divide]].
 
==संरचना==
Three bodies are responsible for policy-making, governance, and day-to-day administration at UNESCO:
*The General Conference
*The Executive Board
*The Secretariat
 
The General Conference is a gathering of the organization's member states and associate members, at which each state has one vote. Meeting every two years, it sets general policies and defines programme lines for the organization.
 
The Executive Board's 58 members are elected by the General Conference for staggered four-year terms. The Executive Board prepares the sessions of the General Conference and ensures that its instructions are carried out. It also discharges other specific mandates assigned to it by the General Conference.
 
The Secretariat consists of the Director-General and his staff and is responsible for the day-to-day running of the organization. The Director-General, who serves as the public face of UNESCO, is elected for a (renewable) four-year term by the General Conference. The staff currently numbers some 2100, of whom some two-thirds are based in Paris, with the remaining third spread around the world in UNESCO's 58 field offices. The Secretariat is divided into various administrative offices and five programme sectors that reflect the organization's major areas of focus.
