The Lithuanian National Commission for UNESCO promotes cooperation in education, science, culture, communication and information to support a sustainable society. Its Secretariat is a public budgetary institution that connects UNESCO’s international priorities with initiatives in Lithuania and shares information about the country’s participation in UNESCO lists and networks.

The Commission’s work covers education, including inclusive learning and UNESCO school networks; science, including open science, ethics, women in science and the Man and the Biosphere Programme; and culture, including world, underwater and intangible cultural heritage and cultural diversity. In communication and information, it addresses documentary heritage, journalist safety, communication development, and media and information literacy.

The organization offers news, publications, events, educational resources and project information. Its featured materials include films, discussions and a virtual exhibition about Lithuanian traditions and heritage. The Secretariat also supports selected initiatives through patronage and develops projects that connect cultural heritage with education, community life and sustainable development. Through these activities, it helps audiences explore UNESCO’s work and Lithuania’s contributions.
