Azerbaijan’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Jeyhun Bayramov has met with the permanent representatives of UNESCO member countries, as well as the heads of the National Commissions of Türkiye, Russia, the United Kingdom and Malta for UNESCO, who are visiting the country to attend the 6th World Forum on Intercultural Dialogue.
The meeting revolved around issues related to cooperation within UNESCO, preparations for the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties (COP29) to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, and the current regional situation.
Minister Jeyhun Bayramov described international projects implemented within the "Baku Process", initiated by Azerbaijan, and the World Forum on Intercultural Dialogue as indicators of the importance and contribution the country attaches to cooperation among cultural diversities.

Highlighting ongoing efforts to mobilize international action on global climate change during Azerbaijan’s presidency of COP29, the minister underscored the significance of awareness-raising activities and cooperation in addressing climate issues.
