Extract

General Policy: Following the mandate of the Fifth General Conference to “pay closest attention to the problems of concentration of efforts and resources”, the Executive Board's draft program for 1952 was evolved under the guiding principle of ‘;dynamic concentration’ — in such a way as to secure effective integration, through subordination, selection, and coordination, of all of UNESCO's manifold activities. As a result, the 1952 draft document contained 147 resolutions, as compared to the 294 resolutions in the 1951 program. The draft program was also meant to reflect the general opinion (first officially expressed in United Nations General Assembly and ECOSOC resolutions) that, in order to realize the optimum effectiveness of the specialized agencies, it was necessary to determine those activities which had priority in the cause of peace and to expend the available resources in the realization of those fundamental goals.
