UNESCO Courier is the main magazine published by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). It has the largest and widest-ranging readership of all the journals published by the United Nations and its specialized institutions.[1]
History and profile
UNESCO Courier was started in 1948 by Sandy Koffler (1916–2020). There was a gap in publication from 2013 until 2017.[2] The magazine has changed a great deal over the years, both in content and in form. But it pursues its original mission: promote UNESCO's ideals, maintain a platform for the dialogue between cultures and provide a forum for international debate.
The printed UNESCO Courier covers issues of literacy, human rights, environment, culture, science and arts.
Available online for free as a PDF since March 2006,[3] The UNESCO Courier serves readers around the world: Most issues are available in English, French, and Spanish. Since 2010, versions in Arabic, Chinese, Portuguese, and Russian have been published, and additional languages, including Esperanto, Sardinian,[4] Sicilian,[5] Korean, and Catalan, have been introduced since 2017. A limited number of printed issues are also produced.[2]
The texts of current issues are available in Open Access under the Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 IGO (CC-BY-SA 3.0 IGO) license. In 2023 a machine-readable digital corpus of Courier’s articles was published on Zenodo, making the archive of Courier’s English-language edition usable for text mining.[6]
