From the preamble of UNESCO's Constitution

Why UNESCO?
War-torn London, 1942. Representatives of the Allied Powers lay the foundations for what was to become UNESCO. The premise: tyranny in all its forms breeds on ignorance and prejudice. All individuals, no matter where they live, must therefore have the opportunity to learn and to cultivate humanistic values, the first as a motor for material progress, the second to lay the foundations for peace and respect for human rights.

UNESCO-the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization-was born on November 16,1945. For this specialized UN agency, it was not enough to build classrooms in devastated countries or to publish the latest scientific developments. Education, science and culture were the means to a far more ambitious goal: "peace founded upon the intellectual and moral solidarity of mankind." UNESCO works to break down the diverse barriers to the spread of knowledge, while fostering dialogue between cultures.
