    Abstract

    UNESCO’s seventieth anniversary conference “Making a Difference: Seventy Years of UNESCO Actions” was convened by UNESCO Archives and the international research project “Routes of Knowledge: The Global History of UNESCO (1945-1975)”. The conference was headed by Professor Poul Duedahl from Aalborg University in Denmark, was supported by the Danish National Commission for UNESCO and was held in the meeting room of the Executive Board (Room X) at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris. During the two-day conference, some 200 participants gathered to listen to and discuss the 15 papers comprising the forthcoming publication A History of UNESCO: Global Actions and Impacts (Palgrave Macmillan, February 2016), edited by Professor Duedahl. Apart from the invited researchers, a number of speakers connected to UNESCO addressed selected topics.
