On Tuesday evening, Grand Duchess Maria Teresa was in Paris to attend an event celebrating the
70th anniversary of the founding of UNESCO. The Secretary-General of the United Nations, Ban Ki-moon, was also there, as was UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova. The event, entitled "UNESCO: 70 years in the service of human dignity," offered a look at the organization's founding and its future goals. The Grand Duchess met with other attendees, including members of the United Nations System Chief Executives' Board for Coordination (CEB).

No photos yet of the Grand Duchess, but they'll be added if they're made available. Post and they shall appear: now on the
Cour website.
Grand Duchess Maria Teresa has been a Goodwill Ambassador for UNESCO since 1997. Her efforts have focused on microfinance, social economy, and international education rights for girls and women.
