This app provides summarized descriptions of the Malaysia-UNESCO Cooperation Programme (MUCP) framework initiated by the Government of Malaysia.
The establishment of the MUCP was kickstarted during the 35th session of the
UNESCO General Conference in 2009. Malaysia pledged to provide financial contribution and technical expertise through the Malaysia Funds-in-Trust (MFIT) in support of the implementation of projects jointly selected under the MUCP. Through this Fund, the cooperation between Malaysia and UNESCO is strengthened through the mobilization of Malaysian expertise and services of Malaysian institutions, including the existing Category 2 Centres (C2C) and South-South Cooperation (SSC). Under the guidance of UNESCO, Malaysia also established synergistic cooperation with experts, particularly from countries of Asia and the Pacific region as well as from Africa, with emphasis on Least Developed Countries (LDCs) and Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
The MUCP would serve the common interest of Malaysia, UNESCO, and the participating Member States as well as empowering the enhancement of South-South Cooperation in education, engineering, technology, human sciences, culture, communications, and information.
Fundamentally, MUCP greatly supports the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 17: Partnership for the Goals, and through its projects, supports SDG 3,4,5,6,8,9,11,12,13,14, 15 and 16.
