UNESCO Accra promotes the Organization's objectives and ideals in Ghana by contributing to global peace, poverty alleviation, sustainable development and intercultural dialogue through a wide range of the Organization's expertise.

UNESCO Accra acts as advisory body in determining policies with regard to UNESCO and its programmes: it fosters close co-operation between state agencies and services, professionals and other institutions with the aim of advancing mutual knowledge and understanding of UNESCO's work towards the common welfare of human-kind.
