ABOUT US

The Ghana Commission for UNESCO (Ghana Natcom) started as a Committee for UNESCO Affairs in 1953 when Ghana became an Associate Member of UNESCO. On 11th April, 1958 when Ghana attained full membership of UNESCO, Cabinet approved the reconstitution of the National Committee under the new title ‘Ghana Commission for UNESCO’.

The Commission serves as the official link between the Government of Ghana and the Organization. It is an agency under the Ministry responsible for Education. National Commissions are unique institutions found in all Member States of UNESCO.
