Become a partner

No international organization, no government, no private actor alone can take on complex challenges we are facing today. We need collective intelligence. We need to share knowledge. We need to act together for our shared humanity.

Ways of partnering with UNESCO

Financial support and resource mobilization

Partners can also help with fundraising through joint campaigns and outreach activities.

Advocacy, knowledge sharing and innovation

Working together in outreach and advocacy to change mindsets, influence behaviours and raise awareness, as to promote learning, sharing of experiences and best practices, and building capacity.

Programme delivery ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

Acting as specialized partners in the implementation of UNESCO's programmes by providing their unique added value, often contributing in cash or in kind.

Multi-stakeholder partnerships

Bringing together governments, international organisations, NGOs, civil society and private sector leaders to achieve common goals through strategic multi-stakeholder partnerships and coalitions.

Entry points at global, regional and national level

Global partnerships

Partners can channel their support to programmes of global scope that are coordinated from UNESCO Headquarters in Paris.

UNESCO field network

With 53 UNESCO Field Offices and 11 Institutes, partners can engage in the preparation and implementation of programmes of (sub)regional/national scope that are designed to address the needs of specific Member States.

Delivering as One: UN Country Team

At country level, UNESCO, other members of the UN Country Team, embassies, aid agencies, financial institutions, civil society and business engage with government and other stakeholders to see how best they can support the country to achieve the SDGs.
