UNESCO (English spelling)
United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations whose mission is international cooperation in the fields of education, science, and culture. Its origins date back to the Allied Ministers of Education Conference held by the Ministers of Education of the various governments (Belgium, Czechoslovakia, France, Greece, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, and Yugoslavia) who were in exile in London during World War II, which considered the educational problems brought about by the destruction and devastation of war. In November 1945, a United Nations Conference on Education and Culture was convened, attended by 44 countries, and drafted and adopted the UNESCO Constitution.
