Created in 1945 to combat "the denial of the democratic principles of the dignity, equality and mutual respect of men", UNESCO, through its founding ideals, prefigured the Universal Declaration of Human Rights proclaimed sixty years ago. For the signatory states of the UNESCO Constitution, the “dissemination of culture” is more than a right; it is a sacred obligation.
- Text of the Universal Declaration:
A common ideal that remains relevant in today’s world - UNESCO Conventions in the field of culture:
A comprehensive series of standard-setting instruments - Social Status of the Artist:
World Observatory and copyright - The Slave Route Project:
Understanding and combating modern forms of slavery - An Alliance of Civilizations:
A partnership for the future
