Note that Azerbaijan has been elected due to votes from 110 countries. Thus,

Romania-111
Azerbaijan 110
Bulgaria 84

Further, being a member of the Committee will support Azerbaijan in fulfilling its global obligations in this field. At the same time, there will be support for the committee's acceptance of already existing nomination dossiers and their management.

Being a member of MAB (Man and Biosphere) will also lead to the preparation and development of joint projects with other neighboring countries.

Besides, being a member of MAB will lead to an increase in knowledge and skills through the existing Universities in Azerbaijan, which will have a positive effect on the cooperation of our Republic with UNESCO in the future.
