The Joint Programmes and the UNESCO Culture Conventions
The 18 MDG-F Culture and Development Joint Programmes have been designed and implemented in the framework of international standard-setting instruments in the field of culture. In this sense, they have significantly helped beneficiary countries implement UNESCO's Conventions on culture, notably by:
- Increasing awareness of the Conventions by promoting and disseminating relevant information at the national, regional and sub-regional levels
- Ensuring appropriate legal measures are taken by government partners
- Building institutional capacity to monitor the implementation of the Conventions
- Designing and implementing specific activities in accordance with the provisions of the Conventions
