🇦🇺proud to stand with you @SMiculescu to support civil society to engage with international organisations and discussions. A rich discussion. 🇺🇳🤝

[Amb. Simona-Mirela Miculescu @SMiculescu]

Am încheiat cu succes prima sesiune ca preşedintǎ a Comitetului UNESCO pentru partenerii neguvernamentali (NGP), în cadrul celei de-a 225-a sesiuni a Consiliului Executiv.
Îmi doresc ca NGP să fie mai puțin un comitet care păzește porți și mai mult unul care construiește punți.

Happy #WorldTeachersDay from the @UNESCO community 📚

[UNESCO @UNESCO]

“Everyone matters, and everyone matters absolutely.”

Before becoming a diplomat, Australia’s Ambassador to @UNESCO was a teacher.

This #WorldTeachersDay, she reflects on what the classroom taught her: to listen, embrace diversity and make sure every voice is heard.

Because great teachers make us feel seen and inspire a lifelong passion for learning.

Together with other Heads of Mission in Kyiv we take note with concern of the Russian MFA's threat against diplomats and foreign citizens in Ukraine.

Russia is bound by the Vienna Convention and international humanitarian law.

We stay in Kyiv.

Congratulations @UNESCO_DG on this historic visit!

[UNESCO @UNESCO]

What does it take to welcome the Pope? 🎬

Behind every historic visit are the people who make it happen.

From protocol and security to broadcasting, interpretation and communications, teams across UNESCO worked behind the scenes to welcome Pope Leo XIV.

Here’s how it came together 👇

🇦🇺 proud to be supporting @unescowhc sites across the Pacific 🌐🌏🏝️🇺🇳

[Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade 🇦🇺 @dfat]

The Marquesas Islands were recently inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, home to dramatic landscapes, rich cultural traditions and enduring Pacific connections. Hear from Australia’s Consul-General to French Polynesia on what makes them so remarkable.

🇦🇺 proudly stepping up to bid for a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council for 2029-2030: committed to listening with respect, partnering as equals, and protecting what matters most. 🕊️🇺🇳🌐

[Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade 🇦🇺 @dfat]

In his National Statement to the United Nations, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Australia will listen with respect, partner as equals, and protect what matters most, should our bid for a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council be successful.

[Australian Permanent Delegation to UNESCO @AusAmbUNESCO]

@unescoDG: 🇦🇺 agrees. Protecting children from harm doesn't stop at borders. It's a global responsibility, and Australia is proud to be stepping up.

[Khaled El-Enany @UNESCO_DG]

I am proud to join the Presidents of Australia, France, Kenya and Spain in advancing  the Coalition for Children’s Rights and Protection in the Age of AI.

Together with @UNICEF, @ITU and @UNHumanRights, @UNESCO will contribute its expertise to turn our shared ambitions into action.

At the High-Level Meeting of the Coalition, I highlighted UNESCO’s contribution through our shared work on AI literacy, digital literacy and critical thinking.

As investment in technology accelerates, we must invest in human intelligence with even greater urgency.

Today I joined Pacific Islands Forum Leaders and UN Secretary-General António Guterres in New York as we work to elevate Pacific voices and priorities. In an uncertain world, Pacific regionalism helps shape a peaceful, stable and prosperous region, where sovereignty is respected.

[Khaled El-Enany @UNESCO_DG]

Pleased to meet with World Jewish Congress President @lauder_ronald during #UNGA.

I expressed my appreciation for the @WorldJewishCong’s longstanding partnership with @UNESCO in the fight against antisemitism and in preserving the memory of the Holocaust.

We discussed how education can help counter antisemitism, Holocaust denial and distortion, and strengthen understanding across generations.

@UNESCO is helping to marry the highly technical with the deeply human impacts of AI. Australia supports civil society's participation in this conversaton.

[UNESCO @UNESCO]

Who needs to be at the table when decisions about AI are made?

More than 150 civil society organizations and academic institutions are working together through @UNESCO’s global network to bring their knowledge, experience and voices into AI governance.

Their latest work is being presented at #GFEAI in Riyadh.

Proud to partner with @UNOCHA in delivering life-saving support where it’s needed most.

Australia remains committed to principled humanitarian action and standing with vulnerable communities worldwide.

[Mariya Gabriel @GabrielMariya]

Democracy depends on people’s right to access information, speak freely and participate.

@UNESCO works to defend #FreedomOfExpression and the #SafetyOfJournalists, because when journalists are silenced or threatened, societies lose vital voices.
