As early as 1942, in wartime, the governments of the European countries, which were confronting Nazi Germany and its allies, met in the United Kingdom for the Conference of Allied Ministers of Education (CAME). The Second World War was far from over, yet those countries were looking for ways and means to reconstruct their systems of education once peace was restored. Very quickly, the project gained momentum and soon took on a universal note. New governments, including that of the United States, decided to join in.Upon the proposal of CAME, a United Nations Conference for the establishment of an educational and cultural organization (ECO/CONF) was convened in London from 1 to 16 November 1945. Scarcely had the war ended when the conference opened. It gathered together the representatives of forty-four countries who decided to create an organization that would embody a genuine culture of peace. In their eyes, the new organization must establish the “intellectual and moral solidarity of mankind” and, in so doing, prevent the outbreak of another world war.

Mission

UNESCO’s mission is to contribute to the building of a culture of peace, the eradication of poverty, sustainable development and intercultural dialogue through education, the sciences, culture, communication and information.

Vision
UNESCO develops educational tools to help people live as global citizens free of hate and intolerance. UNESCO works so that each child and citizen has access to quality education. By promoting cultural heritage and the equal dignity of all cultures, UNESCO strengthens bonds among nations. UNESCO fosters scientific programmes and policies as platforms for development and cooperation. UNESCO stands up for freedom of expression, as a fundamental right and a key condition for democracy and development. Serving as a laboratory of ideas, UNESCO helps countries adopt international standards and manages programmes that foster the free flow of ideas and knowledge sharing. UNESCO's founding vision was born in response to a world war that was marked by racist and anti-Semitic violence. Seventy years on and many liberation struggles later, UNESCO’s mandate is as relevant as ever. Cultural diversity is under attack and new forms of intolerance, rejection of scientific facts and threats to freedom of expression challenge peace and human rights. In response, UNESCO's duty remains to reaffirm the humanist missions of education, science and culture

UNESCO Partners:
UNESCO's approach to partnership is firmly rooted in the 2030 Agenda, with SDG 17, Partnership for the Goals, at its heart. Among UNESCO's partners are the United Nations Development System, donors, key constituencies such as young people, cities, and businesses, as well as NGOs, IGOs, and what we refer to as "UNESCO family partners." UNESCO's "Extended Family," which includes UNESCO Clubs, UNESCO Chairs, and the UNITWIN Network, as well with UNESCO Goodwill Ambassadors, the UNEVOC Network, UNESCO Category 2 Institutes and Centre, and UNESCO intergovernmental programmes, and their membership, contribute a wealth of knowledge and expertise to UNESCO's programmes, and are an important dimension of UNESCO's comparative advantage for other potential partners. UNESCO National Commissions are privileged partners for outreach, engagement, and amplifying messages about UNESCO's vision and mission at the country level. UNESCO's programmes react to the demands of its Member States that are within the scope of the organization's two-year plan and budget. UNESCO also expects from its partners that they will be committed to its vision and values.

Public Partners:

Un Development System

Although UNESCO is a vital member of the United Nations Development System, it also works closely with the UN's finances, programmes, commissions, and other specialized agencies. UNESCO also actively participates in all UN Sustainable Development Group (UNSDG) initiatives devoted to UN Reform implementation. At the country level, UNESCO participates actively in the UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSCDF), a dynamic framework for collaboration between the UN system and Member States. It exemplifies the spirit of collaboration that is central to the 2030 Agenda.

Government Partners

The majority of UNESCO's voluntary contributions come from bilateral government donors, who offer between 60 to 70% of overall assistance to key programmes areas, particular initiatives, and specialized institutes. Many of UNESCO's important government funders have long-standing partnership agreements with the organization that provide for regular strategic conversations, cooperative planning, and monitoring of collaboration. In addition,  UNESCO is also extending its position as implementation partner to bilateral government donors in initiatives created by these donors with specific beneficiary nations or sub-regions. It's also stepping up its collaboration with new donors and middle-income countries, particularly by offering technical assistance for programmes produced on their own land.

Intergovernmental Organizations Including Regional Organizations

UNESCO works closely with a variety of other intergovernmental organizations, including the European Union, International Financial Institutions, and other organizations with global or regional mandates, with whom it shares common values and objectives as well as mutually reinforcing areas of expertise. UNESCO recognizes the particular added value at regional and sub-regional level of regional intergovernmental organizations including the Regional Economic Communities, and Regional Development Banks and its cooperation with Member States closely aligned with regional strategies such as “Agenda 2063: The Africa We Want

Expertise:

Education

Education Transforms Live
-Education transforms lives and it is at the heart of UNESCO’s mission to build peace, eradicate poverty and drive sustainable development. UNESCO also believes that education is a human right for all throughout life and that access must be matched by quality. The Organization is the only United Nations institution with a mandate to address all elements of education. Through Sustainable Development Goal 4, it has been entrusted with leading the Global Education 2030 Agenda. UNESCO is give a global and regional leader in education, strengthening education systems around the world and responding to modern global challenges via education, with gender equality as a core premise. Its work encompasses educational development from pre-school to higher education and beyond. Themes include global citizenship and sustainable development, human rights and gender equality, health and HIV and AIDS, as well as technical and vocational skills development.

Culture

UNESCO believes that no development can be long-term unless it has a significant cultural component. Only a human-centered development approach built on mutual respect and open conversation among cultures can provide long-term, inclusive, and equitable outcomes. Culture, however, has been absent from the development equation until this  lately. To ensure that culture takes it rightful place in development strategies and processes, UNESCO has taken a three-pronged approach: it leads global advocacy for culture and development, works with the international community to establish clear policies and legal frameworks, and works on the ground to help governments and local stakeholders protect heritage, strengthen creative industries, and promote cultural pluralism. Cultural norms that recognized by UNESCO provide a unique global platform for international collaboration and develop a holistic cultural governance structure based on human rights and shared values. These international treaties endeavour to protect and safeguard the world’s cultural and natural heritage.

Communication And Information

The Communication and Information Sector strives is to foster freedom of expression, media development, and access to information and knowledge in line with UNESCO’s mandate to “promote the free flow of ideas by word and image” . Next, UNESCO promotes freedom of expression and journalist safety both online and offline, particularly through the United Nations Plan of Action on Journalist Safety. Furthermore, the Sector fights online hate speech, as well as disinformation and misinformation, through public awareness campaigns, ongoing monitoring, capacity-building initiatives, and technical assistance to Member States. UNESCO also promotes open solutions, such as Open Educational Resources, access for marginalized people, and multilingualism in cyberspace, to ensure universal access to information and knowledge. The Organization develops media and information literacy curriculum, furthers gender equality in media operations and content, and encourages pertinent media coverage of crisis and emergency situations. Through its holistic approach, UNESCO contributes to media diversity and pluralism by fostering diversity of content, audience, sources, and systems.

Natural Sciences

UNESCO works to assist countries to invest in science, technology and innovation (STI), to develop national science policies, to reform their science systems and to build capacity to monitor and evaluate performance through STI indicators and statistics taking into account the broad range of country-specific contexts.

Major Initiatives:

Futures Of Education

UNESCO’s Futures of Education initiative aims is to rethink education and shape the future. The initiative is catalyzing a global debate on how knowledge, education and learning need to be reimagined in a world of increasing complexity, uncertainty, and precarity.  The vision of the futures education is Knowledge and learning are humanity’s greatest renewable resources for responding to challenges and inventing alternatives.  However, education does more than respond to a changing world. Education transforms the world.  Next, the aim of futures of education is learning to become initiative will catalyze a global debate on how knowledge and learning can shape the future of humanity and the planet.

Building Knowledge Societies

Knowledge and information have significant impact on people’s lives. The sharing of knowledge and information, particularly through Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) has the power to transform economies and societies. UNESCO works to create inclusive knowledge societies and empower local communities by increasing access to and preservation and sharing of information and knowledge in all of UNESCO’s domains. Knowledge societies must build on four pillars: freedom of expression; universal access to information and knowledge; respect for cultural and linguistic diversity; and quality education for all.
"At a time of profound transformation, inequality and upheaval, UNESCO has redoubled its efforts to ensure freedom of expression, access to information and inclusive digital development worldwide. However, much more remains to be done. We call on all Member States and partners to join us and support our action to make sure communication and information can be maintained as a common good and a cornerstone of healthy, democratic societies."
- Audrey Azoulay, Director -General, UNESCO -

UNESCO Commitment To Biodiversity

Biodiversity is the living fabric of our planet. It underpins human wellbeing in the present and in the future, and its rapid decline threatens nature and people alike. According to reports released in 2018 by the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), the main global drivers of biodiversity loss are climate change, invasive species, over- exploitation of natural resources, pollution and urbanization. It is critical to change people's roles, activities, and connections with biodiversity in order to halt or reverse this decrease. There are numerous options for halting and reversing biodiversity loss. UNESCO’s diverse networks, programmes and partners have observed positive and inspiring seeds of change around the world. UNESCO also accompanies Member States and their people in their efforts to halt biodiversity loss by understanding, appreciating, safeguarding and using biodiversity sustainably.

Sustainable Cities

UNESCO is committed to increase more better the sustainability of cities through policy advice, technical assistance and capacity building, drawing on its longstanding normative and operational experience in the fields of education, sciences, culture, communication and development. Thanks to multi-disciplinary cooperation among all its sectors, as well as its broad network of experts across the globe, UNESCO has become a leading agency in the effective implementation of the New Urban Agenda and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Specialized Areas:

Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission

(IOC-UNESCO) try hardly  to promote intergovernmental cooperation in order to generate knowledge about the nature and resources of the ocean and coastal areas and to apply that knowledge to management, sustainable development, marine environment protection, and decision-making processes within its Member States. Beside that, the commission also aims to improve society's relationship with the ocean by developing and disseminating scientific knowledge, as well as educating the general public on how to properly respond to the world's ocean's unparalleled environmental changes and human activities.

Global Priorities:

Gender Equality

More than two-thirds of the world's 750 million persons lack basic literacy skills; women make up fewer than 30% of researchers; and women journalists are more vulnerable to assault, threat, or physical, verbal, or digital attack than their male counterparts. UNESCO believes that all forms of discrimination based on gender are violations of human rights, as well as a significant barrier to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Our message is clear: as equal citizens, women and men must have equal chances, choices, capabilities, power, and knowledge. Building a sustainable future for all requires equipping girls and boys, women and men with the knowledge, values, attitudes, and skills to address gender inequities.

Organization’s Contribution/ Benefit- Toward Access To Information 

# data[].attributes.body
Access to information is an indispensable pillar that enables the free flow of information and advances the promotion and protection of human rights. In the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, access to information held by public bodies has been recognized as a necessary facilitating mechanism for public engagement across the Sustainable Goals, wherein UNESCO is tasked with monitoring and reporting the implementations of access to information policies worldwide under Goal 16. UNESCO assists countries in their compliance and implementations of international treaties, agreements, norms and standards related to Universal Access to Information. In addition, UNESCO provides evidence-based and, where appropriate, integrated policy advice to help countries implement and report their activities on the 2030 Agenda, particularly by mainstreaming constitutional, statutory and/or policy guarantees for public access to information. UNESCO makes use of international fora and international days such as the International Day for Universal Access to Information to leverage existing partnerships for inclusive digital transformation. UNESCO recognizes that universal access to information must embrace open standards to support innovation and competition without barriers. UNESCO advocate for Open Access, including free and affordable access to journals and books, and open archives for scientific information.  Open Access can also provide reliable and verified information to all, especially in times when misinformation and disinformation abounds. The importance of Open Data is also acknowledged by promoting open and FAIR data and harnessing its power for innovative, socially beneficial applications.
Organization’s Contribution/ Benefit- Toward Access To Information :

UNESCO help people to gain information and education

The importance of UNESCO is highlighted by an interview with Jaroslava Moserova, president of the General Conference in 1999, who was convinced of the role that the organization could play in a post-Cold War world. She said in the interview that “The aim of UNESCO is to improve the quality of life. It is not a political organization at all but the main pillar of UNESCO is education, access to education. The delegates from different parts of the world, different cultures, different traditions, there is one thing all of them agree on, and that is that the only tool for better or worse is education.” The note Moserova made when acknowledging that education is an indispensable tool is only one of the ways to see the importance of UNESCO.

The Information for All Programme of UNESCO tackles disinformation through impactful projects that promote access to information and digital literacy.

As the COVID-19 pandemic has so vividly shown, access to information has the potential to save lives. This health crisis has underlined how media and information literacy can address surges in disinformation. It has highlighted the importance of making reliable information readily available in multiple languages, including indigenous languages. The information for all programmes of UNESCO (IFAP) deals with all these issues. It aims to build inclusive knowledge societies, where technological progress and digital opportunities are part of everyone’s daily lives. As UNESCO is establishing cross-cutting strategic objectives to guide its actions over the next eight years, IFAP must act as an enabler for the Organization’s communication and information priorities, working in a transversal manner to contribute to UNESCO’s assistance to Member States in achieving the SDGs, underlined the IFAP Chair.  To better serve Member States’ needs and guided by the IFAP Bureau, IFAP Secretary Ms. Marielza Oliveira is strengthening and standardizing IFAP’s internal processes, increasing the programmes effectiveness, efficiency and outreach.

UNESCO and the Republic of Serbia help people have fuller advantage of information flows

As Internet use and access to information continue to rise at a rapid rate, so does the amount of beneficial and harmful content. The concerns are dual. They are obviously about the dangers of harmful content itself to all people. There are also worries about how the detrimental content crowd out and makes it difficult to identify beneficial content. What started as trickle of digital pollution decades ago, is now a flood that is becoming increasingly harder to handle. The impact to the world is an environment in which people are confronted with disinformation on a daily basis and where lies can cost lives. This will be treated at the thematic webinars on 27 and 29 April 2021 presenting various experiences, innovation and policy dialogue on media and information literacy from experts and practitioners. The webinars are open to the public and will discuss UNESCO’s and the Republic of Serbia’s jointly launched publication: Media and Information Literate Citizens: Think Critically, Click Wisely (Second Edition of the UNESCO Model Media and Information Literacy Curriculum for Educators and Learners).  Webinars will cover some issues such as policies and practices: Futures media and information literacy and media & information literacy as a backbone for intercultural dialogue, and anti-hate speech. The publication is meant to counteract this spread of disinformation in a sustainable manner and to help people to have fuller advantage of new information flows. It promotes media and information literacy at the root, which is an effective way to change toxic online and offline behaviors that are nowadays prevalent on many digital platforms and at various parts of society. It was launched on 22 April 2020, by high-level speakers from UNESCO, Serbia, the European Commission and the African Union.

Educational Planning

UNESCO’s Futures of Education initiative aims to rethink education and shape the future. The initiative is catalyzing a global debate on how knowledge, education and learning need to be reimagined in a world of increasing complexity, uncertainty, and precarity. To keep relevant in the future, educational planning must keep pace and adapt to the many changes constantly reshaping our world. From globalization, rapid urbanization, vast technological advancements, to the perils of conflict and climate change, there are a myriad of factors influencing the current and future state of education. Educational planners and managers must keep abreast of all these changes and configure new approaches to planning in an age of rapid transformation. They must update their practices and apply new policy tools to both respond to challenges and take advantage of new advancements. In this context, IIEP-UNESCO is pleased to announce the publication of its first two papers in its Foresight Series, a research project aimed at helping educational decision-makers and managers to adapt their work to a changing environment. Each paper looks at the positives and negatives of a specific education initiative in a given country. In a short, accessible format, the paper’s goal is to help foster discussion on its implications for education policy, planning, and management. The first two editions in this new series take us to the United Kingdom, to explore the role of academies and free schools in the shift towards decentralization and school empowerment, and to Spain, to look at current policy tools to counteract school segregation in Catalonia.

The Institute

As the only specialized organization with the mandate to support educational policy, planning and management, IIEP plays a unique role within the United Nations system. It was established in 1963 as an integral part of UNESCO. The Institute is fully aligned with the objectives of the organization and contributes to its education planning. It develops the capacities of education actors to plan and manage their systems through its programmes of training, technical assistance, policy research and knowledge sharing. IIEP enjoys a large degree of intellectual and functional autonomy. This allows it to adapt quickly to emerging needs and to innovate in areas which help ministries to plan and manage education services.

IIEP’s work is guided by the following principles, which are deeply rooted in the Institute’s history and culture

- IIEP uses a capacity development approach to planning which promotes consultative, inclusive and participatory processes. National ownership is systematically pursued, encouraged and enhanced.
-IIEP is committed to creating and sharing knowledge to support context-relevant analyses to improve educational policy formulation and planning.
-  IIEP engages in partnerships and alliances for greater effectiveness and sustainability. These include partnerships with ministries in charge of education, other line ministries, non-state actors, funders and other UN agencies

The conclusion that I can give  is UNESCO is the organization that can help many people without look the culture, gender or anything because they help everyone to improve people life to be more better and UNESCO very concerned about the education especially kids who is have constraints to study. United Nation Educational, scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) also works to create the environment for discussion between society, cultures and peoples, based upon value for generally to share. Throughout this discussion the world can accomplish worldwide visions of sustainable development surrounding execution of human right, mutual respect and the improvement of poverty. The major programs of UNESCO are to deal with education, natural science, social and human science, culture, communication and information. Beside that, there are also many goals and planning from UNESCO to improve everyone life and make everyone success especially in education. Beside that, UNESCO also have provide the education institute for all student to they study and gain information to be educated human. Many function and benefits that UNESCO give to everyone life. UNESCO also have many organization and bodies from another countries that participate and join to do more charity and help people outside there. But, the global priorities that this organization focuses on are Africa and gender equality.

We are making UNESCO a place where environmental sustainability considerations are at the core of all of our internal policies and practices, facilities and operations

Nicholas Jeffreys, Assistant-Director General for Administration and Management

A lot of progress have been spurred during the three years of Strategic Transformation, and this is a new milestone in the process which has helped UNESCO to set up and implement an Environmental Management System (EMS) to track and reduce its carbon emissions, waste generation, and water use.

UNESCO's Environmental Sustainability and Management Policy was published in June 2021. This policy is a major improvement in the Organization providing a concrete and practical framework to integrate sustainability practices into UNESCO's activities. It provides cross-cutting policies to reduce the Organization's carbon footprint. The overall aim is to minimize any negative impact on the environment by UNESCO's operations worldwide, and contribute positively to protecting the environment and communities in which its operate. Access the policy in English or French.

UNESCO's Strategic Transformation advocated for strong environmental commitments

The " World in 2030 " global survey, carried out by the Strategic Transformation Support Unit, found that climate change ranked as one of the biggest global challenges.

To improve UNESCO's sustainability, the organization has established an Environment Management System as a long-term framework for a greener UNESCO. The EMS abides with ISO14001 standards and should be fully compliant for Headquarters by end of 2021. This system will work iteratively to maximize the institution's operational and environmental efficiency. In addition to the longer-term goals laid out by the EMS, some of the recent concrete achievements with regard to environmental management at UNESCO include:

Implementing an internal carbon tax on air travel -to finance carbon offsetting initiatives and invest in emission-reduction measure across the long term;

Creating a biodiversity and vegetable garden at UNESCO headquarters in partnership with the French National Commission that features information about the seasonal fruits and vegetables, pollination, and agricultural methods. A parallel effort with the Portuguese company Noocity created a sustainable vegetable, fruits, and herbs garden at Headquarters that distributes fresh food to subscribed staff members;

Launching a 'zero plastic' policy and commitment to reduce food waste that is upheld by UNESCO's new catering service SERENEST;

Switching to electricity supply from 100% renewable sources at HQ;

Entering a collaboration with UNEP to introduce environmentally conscious practices into digital working via the "Virtual Meetings" project;

Gradually replacing of the HQ fleet with electric vehicles (so far 1 electric, 1 hybrid car; acquisition of additional electric vehicle in discussion); and

A variety of measures and activities to engage staff and enhance their environmental awareness, such as a corporate subscription to the bike-sharing system 'Vélib' in Paris or a campaign to participate in World Cleanup Day.

Achieving Climate Neutrality

In 2020, the UN Greening the Blue report scored UNESCO as " climate neutral " because it had measured and offset all of its 2019 carbon emissions caused by its facilities and official travel

through the purchase of UN-Certified Emission Reduction (CER) credits. Solidifying the organization's commitment to greener practices, UNESCO has pledged to cut carbon emissions by 45% by 2030 (compared to 2010) to further reduce its carbon footprint, in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Since 2020, UNESCO is also offsetting all emissions related to its HQ publications and printing service, via a hydropower project near Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Working with Young UNESCO, Headquarters, and Field Offices, UNESCO released a guide on environmental awareness and conscious practices in the workplace. The " Staff Guide for a Green UNESCO" is now available in both English and French.

Some good practices from the Field include efforts taken by UNESCO Bangkok, who have developed the first Environmental Management Action Plan focused on six actions areas (Leadership, Service Providers, Transportation, Resources, Waste, and Awareness) to actively reduce its resource use and increase staff awareness of sustainable behaviors.

In 2019, UNESCO Bangkok launched The Plastic Initiative to reduce waste and properly recycle plastic. The program has received buy in from UN Habitat, UN ESCAP, IUCN, SEAMEO, the Asian Institute of Technology, and the National Science Museum in Thailand to emphasize the connection between scientific education and awareness and responsibility environmental stewardship.

In Zimbabwe, UNESCO's regional office for Southern Africa in Harare has taken major strides in environmental sustainability that have engaged staff in the development and design processes. Since 2018, the Office eliminated single-use plastic waste and gone paperless where possible. As well, they replaced their lighting system to a greener LED system and used a sticker system to encourage staff to be more mindful about electricity use and turn lights off when leaving a room.

In 2019, the Office established the Green Plan Committee to discuss ways to improve sustainability at regional offices. The Office released a ten-step plan for UNESCO offices in Southern Africa and also have put together a carbon offsetting strategy to dramatically reduce their environmental footprint.

Ya Su, administrative office from UNESCO Harare, says that the office is implementing fully solar powered office energy systems.

The system, which is being set up over the parking lot, has a nominal PV power of 50,4000 kWp and a nominal battery ability of 27.65 kWh, which will generate around 90 MWh/yearly. Efforts are in place to feed excess energy generated back into the grid

Ya Su, administrative office from UNESCO Harare

After an internal audit of environmental practices and areas of improvement, the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL) in Hamburg, Germany, created a Greening Action Plan with quantifiable targets and indicators across Travel, Events, Facilities Management, and Publications to improve its sustainable practices. UNESCO Bangkok, Harare, and the UIL demonstrate the initiative and power of staff to drive internal change across the field.

Actions across UNESCO have not gone unnoticed. In their most recent "Review of mainstreaming environmental sustainability across organizations of the United Nations system," the Joint Inspection Unit highlighted how UNESCO's Strategic Transformation and concrete workplace programs have helped make the organization more sustainable.

The most disadvantaged children are more likely to be denied the opportunity to have a good start to their education, according to two new studies by UNESCO and its Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report.

UNESCO's report "Right from the start: build inclusive societies through inclusive early childhood education" reminds countries of their commitment, made in the fourth UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) on education, to ensure that all girls and boys have access to quality early childhood development, care and pre-primary education so that they are ready for primary education. They are published ahead of the launch of a new Global Partnership Strategy for Early Childhood in September.

Coordinated by UNESCO, the partnership will bring together more than 40 organizations active in early childhood care and education (ECCE) to support governments in providing effective ECCE services and in tackling challenges arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.

UNESCO's report shows that, despite progress, an estimated 2 in 5 children, mostly in low- and lower-middle-income countries are still not enrolled in pre-primary school and currently only 28% of countries globally have made pre-primary education compulsory, ranging from none in the Arab States to 55% in Latin America and the Caribbean.

The International Federal Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) plays an important role in accessing information as these organizations provide library and information services to users. Additionally, IFLA is also a world -renowned international body. On 30 September 1927, the International Federation Associations and Institutions of Libraries (IFLA) was established at the Annual Meeting of the UK Library Association in Edinburgh, Scotland. In 2017, IFLA celebrated the 90th anniversary of IFLA’s founding. The Netherlands registered IFLA and the Royal Library in 1971. The Netherlands established a national library in The Hague by providing various facilities in order to facilitate the work of IFLA. IFLA is sometimes a professional global voice on behalf of librarians and also has a rich career. Many countries have established IFLA in their respective countries such as Malaysia, Korea, Europe and so on. This is because each country is confident that IFLA has a positive impact on the access to information in that country.

The purpose of IFLA was established is :

This organization encourages each library to have a high standard of delivery and preparation of library services and information so that the library provides the best services.

This organization provides understanding to librarians so that they can evaluate the best library and information services. This supports the expansion of information to users.

# data[].attributes.body
Development and Access to Information (DA2I) is a series of reports led by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) and the University of Washington Technology and Social Change Group (TASCHA) to monitor the country. As part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, fulfill its commitment to promote meaningful access to information (A2I). Access to information can help achieve the selected sustainable development goals in the following ways:

Help end hunger and promote nutrition

The goal of Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG 2) is to "eliminate hunger, achieve food security and improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture" (United Nations, 2015 year). Eradicating hunger and all forms of malnutrition cannot simply focus on increasing crop yields. Attention must also be paid to improving the quality and nutritional value of food, increasing the income of small farmers, empowering women, supporting the resilience of ecosystems to climate change, maintaining genetic diversity and improving everyone’s access to healthy food. These key components of eradicating hunger are described in the sub-goals of Sustainable Development Goal 2.

Currently, there are approximately 570 million farms in 161 countries. Of these, 13% are in low-income countries and 36% are in low- and middle-income countries. Farms of less than 2 hectares account for 12% of the world's agricultural land, and family farms account for 75% of the world's agricultural land (Lowder et al., 2016). 43% of the agricultural labor force in underdeveloped countries is made up of women (FAO, 2012). In order to achieve sustainable agriculture and Sustainable Development Goal 2, smallholder farmers, especially women, and low- and middle-income farmers
must be able to access, analyze, and apply information to their production systems. Improving farmers' access to information increases the likelihood of achieving Sustainable Development Goal 2 and its subgoals.

Open data is essential to improve farmers' access to information. The Global. Open Data on Agriculture and Nutrition (GODAN) initiative advocates for the active sharing of open data so that information on agriculture and nutrition is available, accessible and available. GODAN and its network of more than 500 partners who also advocate for open data believe that open data in agriculture and nutrition is critical to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, especially SDG2. There are two aspects to making SDG2 open data a reality: 1) Farmers need open data and access to modern agricultural information.

Help ensure healthy lives and promote well-being

It is difficult to distinguish the health benefits of A2I from the broader social, cultural, and economic benefits. Fundamentally, A2I helps create and maintain stable, transparent and accountable societies in which basic human rights to health and well-being are more likely to be recognized. Driven by A2I, improved education has promoted economic development. If the latter is managed responsibly, taking into account long-term sustainability and the fair distribution of economic benefits, the social and structural conditions for a healthy society will be created. Clean water, access to healthy nutrition, security, shelter - all this has a profound impact on health and well-being, and A2I can play a critical role in all aspects. But there are some more specific health benefits stemming from A2I and the libraries, and it's worth paying attention to what they are and how to maximize them.

Quality education and lifelong learning for all – A focus on people

Access to information is the key to success here. To paraphrase Paulo Freire's words, when people cannot read the text or the world, not only can they not change their lives or the situation at the national level, but they also cannot obtain information and knowledge about the issues they can fight for. Global level. It is true that at the government level, the need to collect reliable data and information is attached great importance to as a "decision key" to support the implementation of the agenda. This includes collecting data and information from existing reporting mechanisms, developing new data collection methods, and "striving to strengthen the statistical capacity of developing countries." When it comes to “ordinary people” access to information, an entire agenda was created for them, broadly referring to “access to information” (in SDG 16), but there are also many references to actual use of information, such as “about food reserves ", "Health services, including family planning" or "Information and understanding about sustainable development and lifestyles in harmony with nature". This is supplemented by talks about bridging the digital divide and providing "information and communication technology access" and "universal and affordable Internet access."

The organizations speak with insight, confidence and authority on relevant policies, ensuring that libraries are recognized and supported as critical community assets essential to achieving development agendas. Then, build a strong presence in international organizations and meetings as a valued partner.

Inspire and Enhance Professional Practice

IFLA's organizations inspire the profession through future thinking and by encouraging new and promising approaches. The organizations drive the development of libraries through standards, guidelines and best practices. Then, provide the tools and resources necessary to foster community, facilitate shared action, and support innovative programs and actions. IFLA organizations work to safeguard, strengthen and elevate the world’s cultural heritage in all of its diverse forms, including traditional, historical, indigenous and contemporary expression.

Connect and Empower The Field

The organizations of IFLA are a hub for dialogue and action. They are the motor of a connected and aligned library field, characterized by a true spirit of collaboration, in which no librarian is left behind. The organizations unite passions, provide platforms, and enable innovation, learning, and professional development at all levels. Through this, they respond to current challenges and opportunities, and empower the library field to deliver high quality services that meet community needs, and foster literacy, innovation, heritage preservation and access to information for all users.

Optimize IFLA Organization

The IFLA organizations maximize their ability to deliver on their missions in the present and future. Then, prepare for the long term through the development of ambitious yet realistic plans for ongoing stability and sustainability. Key to this are efforts to grow and diversify their membership, strengthen their regional presence, and actively engage members through an effective professional structure and a wide variety of volunteering possibilities. The organizations will increase their visibility, and provide efficient, effective, and innovative services and support.

Contribution or benefit that OCLC has provided towards access to information are as we can see OCLC make WorldCat is a system that help to connect to the world's collected knowledge. This is because WorldCat is the world's most comprehensive database of information about library collections. OCLC delivers quality, discoverability and value.

Other than that, WorldCat records are constantly being updated and corrected by OCLC's staff of skilled catalogers and data quality specialists, ensuring the WorldCat has the finest quality entries available. Besides, Library staff members also improve records through the OCLC cataloging and Metadata Subscription (formerly known as the OCLC Cataloging Subscription), ensuring that these records are of the highest quality.

Not only that WorldCat has helped librarians drastically reduce the time they spend on original cataloguing by allowing libraries to share high-quality library metadata and bibliographic entries with one another. OCLC member librarians copied catalogued 95 percent of their items from WorldCat in calendar year 2020, saving an average of 10 minutes per little. During that year, these librarians copy cataloged 17,101,022 titles, saving a total of about 3 million hours of time.

In addition, with WorldCat its also help to make the institutions collection visible. Furthermore, WorldCat also brings together the valuable information which is about collection items, electronic resources and the libraries that make them available. Next, OCLC provide access to knowledge, share institutions collections and also help to prove the library value.
So what are the benefits of OCLC is they provide better service for library users, give more comprehensive data, also has international connections by and for the members.

There are many exciting new opportunities ahead." This is where OCLC fourth president has said for OCLC strategy change.

OCLC also has the planning in the Asia Pacific Century. Among the countries listed are:

Australia & New Zealand

In Australia- 300 Amlib customers, they are migrating to WorldShare Management Services. To date 26 live or in implementation. 17 former Amlib, 9 new.

VDX software supports national ILL/Document Delivery PLUS 3 statewide services for public libraries and 18 universities.

China, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Thailand.

WorldCat needs to have strong regional connections - so they plans to build solid regional partnerships.

Other than that, OCLC team is studying the metadata requirements with a Metadata Advisory Group.
- Focus on global authorities and UNICODE.
- To be worked out for different scripts and languages.
- Prioritize scripts and languages

OCLC also planning to be community catalysts.

Focus on the future through the lens of community.

Working with administrators and teachers to improve student outcomes in new and unexpected ways in common in academic libraries. They will examine how a catalyst mindset can be a great way to plan for the future.

Chart a path that invites participation.

They identified four areas that they will focus on that apply "community catalyst".
- Build powerful networks that help libraries achieve more, through unique collaborations and connections.
- Lead with technology and innovate with confidence, while sparking others creativity.
- Create measurable, community-wide impact.
- Exceed user expectations by meeting evolving needs.

OCLC also prepare for their future collection.

Opening the stacks even further.

The aim is to create adaptable services that supply resources to users in a timely and responsive manner. This may result in fewer materials in the local collection but considerably more access outside the building. To do this, a growing number of libraries are extending resource sharing options and experimenting with cooperative borrowing schemes to fulfil demand.

Staying flexible in the future

Resource sharing can help your library stay flexible enough to meet the needs of its users. We can make informed decisions about what should stay local as a group without sacrificing access to the long tail of content that is important but rarely requested.
