Sectors, Institutes, & Foundations
These are Fellowships that are administered directly by the Programme Sectors or the UNESCO Institutes and other Foundations
|
Programme Sectors
Fellowships may be offered by the Programme Sectors in relation to the various programmes adopted by the General Conference.
Some of the fellowships, study or travel grants activities undertaken by the Programme Sectors with a variety of funding sources, such as the Regular Programme, the Participation Programme and/or Extra-budgetary resources are listed below. These programmes may or may not be included in future C/5 documents as the latter are adopted by a General Conference which is held every two years
Extra-Budgetary Projects
In view of the technical capabilities that the Organization possesses or can summon to its side, and of what may be termed its moral authority, UNESCO attracts collaboration of all kinds. For instance, an industrialized nation wishing to aid a developing country in carrying out a particular project may accordingly remit trust funds to UNESCO for fellowship activities (known as funds-in-trust projects). Multilateral agencies such as the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the World Bank, the United Nations Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA), regional investment banks, or bilateral development aid agencies, etc., finance other projects. Certain beneficiaries of UNESCO activities themselves may wish to contribute to UNESCO activities by making voluntary contributions. |
