The island of Sao Tome and Principe joined UNESCO on January 22, 1980. The country comes under the jurisdiction of the Organization's office in Libreville, Gabon.
Education and literacy are the most pressing concerns of Sao Tome and Principe's government, which is why UNESCO has set up a project there designed to improve the quality of teaching in primary and secondary schools and reduce the number of untrained teachers.
