The ILO/UNESCO Recommendation concerning the Status of Teachers was adopted on 5 October 1966 at a conference held in Paris at the UNESCO headquarters and organised in close cooperation with the ILO.
The Recommendation was the result of several years of preparatory work by the two organisations, studying virtually all aspects of the teaching profession.
Although it has remained unamended, the Recommendation is still considered a valid instrument to promote good teaching practices.
