UNESCO CLUB













ACTION PLAN, 2012








Abstract

UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) is a specialised agency of the UN. It was formed to find answers to the key problems that beset our societies in the areas within its competence.
To achieve the aims of UNESCO, clubs are formed around the world. The clubs are educational in character. Three functions of UNESCO clubs are Training, Information, and Action. In essence they mean training of the members, information both for members and for general public, and lastly the action which is essential condition of the club.  The main aim of the clubs are to create more public support and take interest in the activities of the UNESCO organisation, taking initiative in celebrating  the official International Days proclaimed by the UN.


The Samtengang UNESCO club has planned to cater the following (various) programs for 2012. Apart from the club days’ activities, the club will also initiate different educational and informative acts.
