Italy joined UNESCO on January 27, 1948. The International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) operates under the aegis of two United Nations agencies: UNESCO and the IAEA (the International Atomic Energy Agency).

The centre is run by the Italian government which provides the majority of its funding. One of the main aims of the ICTP is to encourage and strengthen higher studies and research in developing countries. In May 2007, Italy hosted the G8-UNESCO World Forum on Education, Research and Innovation.
