Answer 5 As early as 1946, UNESCO became one of the United Nations specialized agencies and it is linked to the United

Nations through a special agreement, which specifies the relations between the two organizations. The agreement between the United Nations and UNESCO: representation at meetings of the governing bodies. The United Nations are invited to attend UNESCOs General Conference and Executive Board meetings. UNESCO is invited to attend the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and the General Assembly meetings;

n of the recommendations made by the United Nations to UNESCO in matters related to its fields of competence and reports thereon;

in their respective fields of competence and transmission of reports requested by the General Assembly and ECOSOC and their subsidiary bodies;

of any formal agreement with any other specialized agency, intergovernmental or nongovernmental organization before any such agreement is concluded. UNESCO participates in most of the meetings convened by the United Nations, notably the sessions of the General Assembly and ECOSOC and their subsidiary bodies. Consequently, the UNESCO General Conference and the Executive Board are informed of the decisions and activities of the United Nations of relevance to the work of UNESCO. Likewise the General Assembly and ECOSOC are kept informed of the resolutions and decisions of UNESCOs governing bodies.
