Press Release
Indeed, in a letter to the Director-General, the United States Department of State welcomed the way UNESCO has responded in recent years to emerging challenges, modernized its control and reduced political tensions.
Elected director of UNESCO in November 2017, Audrey Azoulay led the mediations that helped raise political tensions and find consensus on the most sensitive issues, such as the Middle East.
New projects have been introduced that allow UNESCO to fully address new demanding situations, such as the ethics of synthetic intelligence or ocean cover, while new flagship campaigns on the ground, including the reconstruction of the Old City of Mosul, Iraq, have enabled the Organization to reconnect with its historic ambitions. Finally, administrative reforms, implemented since 2018, have made UNESCO more effective and financially sound.
The return of the United States became imaginable through the agreement reached through Congress in December 2022 authorizing monetary contributions to UNESCO. The United States had suspended its contributions in 2011 due to domestic legislation, before notifying UNESCO of its decision to legally withdraw on October 12, 2017.
The proposed funding plan will now have to be submitted to the General Conference of UNESCO’s Member States for approval. Some Member States called for a special consultation soon for a resolution.
