The modern Russian position in the international scale is referred to the requirement of leading of multi-vector inner policy as the necessary condition of the realization of the crucial internal transformation. In the UNESCO (United National Economic Scientific and Cultural Organization) this interaction of inner policy to the task of internal development is being represented particularly properly. Having made the choice for the good of the open society, Russia cares for the entrance quality of the world intellectual cultural space. Besides, it is concerned with the issue of the formation of the international space in the globalization epoch, being connected to the items of internal policy. Traditional fame and ideology neutral representation of the UNESCO in our country is directed to the possibility of involvement of the project realization of the extended intellectual and public force of Russia, uniting them around the universal moral ideal and the value. In this case, the main task is to support the native science, education and culture, as one of the most important factors of social-economic development and flourishing of Russia. Hence, the key advantage of Russia from the participation in the educational programs of the UNESCO is compiled from the fact that the UNESCO is the only international organization in the educational issues, in which the international community takes part. Other organizations either include fewer amount of member-states (for example, only the industrial developed countries), or deal with the narrow range of educational items (for instance, the World Bank is engaged with those projects, being directly concerned with development). Besides, the educational programs of the UNESCO provide the direct front access to the progressive methodology and to the experience of the other countries in the education field on the one side and to the opportunity of the Russian experience spreading in the other countries on the other side.

The major educational programs of the UNESCO include: the education strategy, the effective experience exchange, the program UNITWIN of the UNESCO departments, the net UNEWORK, the net of the system of the associated schools, the adult education. As for the educational strategy, its basis (until 2015) is invested at the Global Forum of education, having been accepted “The Dakar Action Frame”. At the thirty-second session of the UNESCO general conference the common basic education was regarded as the main priority of prospective development.

The main objective was the achievement of the educational aim for all the levels for the whole life span. Education has been contemplated as the background of the personality potential realization, being the important factor in the poverty fight and in the provision of the stable growth. In the given strategy the necessity of refreshing of secondary education, reforming technical and professional education is being underlined. In the sphere of higher education the main purpose is set in the approach enlargement, quality acceleration, contribution in the learning program evaluation. Particular attention (concern) will be paid to the issue of globalization influence upon higher education. Russia will gain the prospect of the UNESCO contribution of education quality acceleration and education system refreshing. The effort will also be directed to the providing of education, corresponding to the realistic requirement as well as of the separate people and the society itself.

Varied global conferences are held in the field of experience exchange. In this reference the International Enlightenment Bureau is aimed at holding the international conferences of minister level education the exchange of progressive experience four times a year in the area of education (the recent forty-sixth conference was set up at the fifth-eighth of September 2001).
