Preparation of the Draft Programme and Budget for 2010-2011
(35 C/5)
The preparation of the Draft Programme and Budget for 2010-2011 (35 C/5) will be guided by the strategic vision of the Medium-Term Strategy for 2008-2013 (34 C/4) and will build upon the results achieved and lessons learned during the implementation of the Programme and Budget for 2008-2009 (34 C/5 Approved).
The Draft Programme and Budget for 2010-2011 is expected to deepen efforts towards the achievement of the overarching and strategic programme objectives of the Medium-Term Strategy, while responding also to new emerging needs and priorities in a rapidly changing international environment.
The consultations with Member States and Associate Members, especially the five regional consultative meetings with National Commissions for UNESCO, have contributed to the identification of programmatic orientations, priority areas and expected results for the Organization.
