Educational programmes
The Slovenia National Commission for UNESCO has been actively participating in UNESCO's educational programmes which have a broader, more basic and global scope providing for lifelong learning and 'education for all'. The Associated Schools Project Network (ASP) is active within the framework of the commission and includes 29 institutions, among them 18 elementary schools and nine secondary schools. The schools take part in international projects and every year a one-week international meeting is held in Piran. A brochure has been published by UNESCO and sent to all the countries.
World Heritage programmes
The commission is also active in the field of heritage programmes. The Škocjan Caves World Heritage Site, one of the most famous sites in the world for the study of karst (limestone) phenomena, was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1986. Other Slovene properties submitted on the tentative list include Classic Karst (1994), the Fužina Hills in Bohinj (1994), the Franja Partisan Hospital (2000) and Idrija on the "Mercury Route of the Intercontinental Camino Real" (2007). In 2010 the two remains of prehistoric pile dwellings from the Ljubljansko Barje marshlands were selected to become part of the transnational heritage site "Prehistoric Pile Dwellings around the Alps".
Communication and Information programmes
In November 2011 the Institute of Information Sciences (IZUM) was granted a status of the Regional Centre for Library Information Systems and Current Research Information Systems (IZUM) as a UNESCO Category 2 centre. In September 2012 the agreement was signed in Paris.
Funding
In 2010 Municipality of Ljubljana took over the prestigious World Book Capital UNESCO title.
Alongside the celebrations in 2008 of the 500th anniversary of the birth of Primož Trubar, the founder of the literary Slovenian language and leader of the Protestant Reformation movement in Slovenia, the National Commission included his birthday on the world's anniversaries list.
UNESCO also supported the Crossradio multicultural radio station network (2001–2009), which included Radio Študent (RŠ) and Mariborski radio Študent (MARŠ) from Slovenia along with independent radio stations from Banja Luka, Belgrade, Mostar, Novi Sad, Sarajevo, Sombor, Skopje, Zrenjanin, Zurich, and Basel. Each week one of these stations contributed a half-hour programme which was broadcast by all members of the network. The aim of the project was to help reduce distrust and tension between the different cultures in South-east Europe, to encourage cultural dialogue and to promote the plurality of media while supporting freedom of expression.
