UNESCO and Global Climate Change

With over 40 activities in all sectors of UNESCO, the Organization provides a unique forum for addressing climate change and its impacts on the environment and human society.

The Director-General has established an Inter-Sectoral Task Force on Global Climate Change to define a strategic and integrated approach for UNESCO on the issue of global climate change and to position the Organization so that it can make a tangible contribution in the years to come, especially in the context of joint action by the UN system.
