On December 25, 2017, the electronic project "Azerbaijan-UNESCO Relations" was presented to users at the Presidential Library.
The director of the library, Mayil Ahmadov, highlighted that 25 years have passed since Azerbaijan became a member of UNESCO. Although Azerbaijan joined the organization on July 3, 1992, the expansion of relations began after the national leader Heydar Aliyev returned to power in the second half of 1993. One of the most important steps in the development of Azerbaijan-UNESCO relations was taken during President Heydar Aliyev's official visit to the French Republic in December 1993, where he met with the Director-General of UNESCO Federico Mayor. During this meeting, issues related to the expansion of bilateral cooperation and its prospects were discussed, and a Memorandum of Understanding was signed.  
The relations between the Republic of Azerbaijan and UNESCO are closely linked to the activities of the First Vice President and President of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation, Mehriban Aliyeva. After Mehriban Aliyeva was appointed as a Goodwill Ambassador of UNESCO on August 13, 2004, for her services in the preservation, study, and research of our country's rich culture, the relations between Azerbaijan and UNESCO began to develop more rapidly.
The electronic resource is presented in two languages: Azerbaijani and English. Providing further details on its structure, the library director noted that the resource includes 6 main sections and 46 subsections.
