L’Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) est née le 16 novembre 1945.

Pour cette agence spécialisée des Nations Unies, le plus important n´ est pas de construire des salles de classe dans des pays dévastés ou de restaurer des sites du Patrimoine mondial.

L´ objectif que s´ est fixé l´ Organisation est vaste et ambitieux : construire la paix dans l´ esprit des hommes à travers l’éducation, la science, la culture et la communication.

La paix n’est pas simplement l’absence de conflits.

La paix signifie : des budgets consacrés à construire et non pas à tuer et détruire, des infrastructures et des services qui fonctionnent et s’améliorent, des populations qui font des projets d’avenir, des esprits libérés des traumatismes de la violence et des idées de vengeance, et réceptifs aux idées de solidarité.
