Nicholas Burnett supervised an multinational research team hosted by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). UNESCO is a United Nations specialized agency that was established on November 16, 1945.

The Organization also functions as a conduit for information and knowledge dissemination and sharing, as well as assisting Member States in developing their human and institutional capacity in a variety of disciplines. In summary, UNESCO encourages international cooperation in the sectors of education, research, culture, and communication among its Member States and Associate Members.
