International organizations and the promotion of a culture of citizenship A study on the role of UNESCO

Abstract

  This study aims to shed light on the role of international organizations in promoting a culture of citizenship, as international bodies operating in the international environment. They aim to regulate international interactions and control international behavior through a set of rules and standards of behavior that regulate the affairs of the international community. This is represented through decisions and recommendations issued by the organs of international organizations, as well as the rules, principles and objectives contained in their charters, as well as declarations, conferences and international agreements as means to achieve the goal of international peace and security and to spread them at the global level. It is the role played by the specialized agencies associated with the United Nations, especially the Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), which, through its principles and objectives, as well as international conventions, declarations and conferences, aim to promote a culture of citizenship by consolidating a culture of dialogue by addressing human minds in a way that contributes to cementing a culture of dialogue and peace and tolerance in a way that contributes to building democratic systems at the global level.
