Parliamentarians

Policy

Policy
  • © UNESCO/Michel Ravassard
  • UNESCO Headquarters/Executive Board

Cooperation with parliamentarians is a major component of UNESCO’s partnership policy. It enables the Organization to mobilize a powerful network of national and regional legislators, meeting at times within regional or international forums, who are receptive to its ideals and wish to ensure that its Programme objectives are reflected in national legislation.

Parliamentarians play a key role in contributing to the promotion of peace and development in UNESCO’s fields of competence.

Entrusted with responsibility for making and applying their nation’s political and legislative decisions, they relay the concerns of those who have mandated them and can adopt appropriate measures by way of response.

They are in the best possible position to make citizens aware of UNESCO’s mission, to have a direct impact on the preparation of legislation and the adoption of national budgets and to ensure that the Organization’s programmes are reflected in reality.
