Background and Aim: The Scientific and Cultural Organization of the United Nations, which is briefly called UNESCO, is one of the specialized organizations affiliated to the United Nations and the goal of this organization is to contribute to global peace and security through international cooperation in the fields of education, science and culture. In order to increase respect for justice and human rights, it is based on the United Nations Charter. So far, UNESCO has carried out related and direct activities in the field of medical ethics. This article examines three global declarations issued by UNESCO, which were compiled in the field of bioethics and medicine and evaluates what role UNESCO's global declarations have played in supporting and promoting medical ethics and whether this organization is the right institution to lead this project. Has it been or not? By evaluating these cases, we can reach conclusions about the importance of these announcements.

Conclusion: UNESCO's three global declarations are an important step in the search for global ethical standards.
