Who we are
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, is a specialised international agency that was founded in 1945. Through its activities within the fields of education, social and natural science, culture and communication and information, UNESCO is actively contributing to the achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, UNESCO’s Medium-Term Strategy 2014-2020 and the 2017-2021 One Strategic Plan of the UN in Viet Nam.
