Extract

Included among the meetings organized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) from July 1957 to January 1958 were a number of international conferences. The twentieth international conference on public education, organized by UNESCO and the International Bureau of Education, was held in Geneva from July 8 to 17, 1957, and attended by delegates of 70 member states. One recommendation adopted by the conference was concerned with the study of present and future needs in school building, while a second dealt with methods of appointment, training, and further education of staff engaged in the training of primary school teachers. The international conference on radio-isotopes in scientific research met in Paris, September 9–20, 1957. Twelve hundred scientists attended the conference, during which forty scientific sessions were conducted.
