The United Nations system.

As the UN agency with a special mandate in education, UNESCO cooperates with a large number of UN agencies to meet education needs worldwide, in the framework of the Millennium Development Goals and the Education for All goals.

Other cooperation with United Nations agencies includes:

International Labour Organization for the improvement of working and employment conditions for teachers and for the inter-agency Global Task Force on Child Labour and Education with UNICEF, World Bank, UNDP and other organizations.

World Food Programme for providing school meals
