Faced with a sharp drop in international aid for education and uneven funding for culture and sciences, UNESCO is sounding the alarm and calling on donors to renew their commitment to these key areas of development.
On the occasion of the International Conference on Financing for Development in Seville, UNESCO welcomes the joint declaration in which Member States recognize the importance of financing education, recognising culture as a driving force for development, and strengthening scientific cooperation in the face of global challenges.
