The 1983 Conference of Ministers of Education and Culture of the Non-Aligned Movement was the first conference of the NAM's ministers of education and culture, which took place between 24-28 September in Pyongyang, North Korea.[1][2] North Korea's proposal to host this event received acknowledgment and endorsement in the final declaration of the 7th Summit of the Non-Aligned Movement in New Delhi, India, earlier that same year.[2]
The conference in Pyongyang was opened with the speech of Kim Il Sung on development of national culture in emerging countries.[1] The conference called upon the member states to cooperate with the new "Josip Broz Tito" Art Gallery of the Nonaligned Countries which was to open its doors in 1984.[3]
