To strenghten the partnership and promote mutual understanding, JNCU has organized the fellowship programmes for staff of National Commissions for UNESCO in Asia and the Pacific region once a year. In this region, it has also been held regularly the Sub-Regional Meeting of Secretary-Generals of National Commissions for UNESCO in East Asia and the Regional Conference of National Commissions for UNESCO in Asia and the Pacific.
