USA is the largest contributor to the budget of UNESCO with a contribution of about 22% of the whole budget of UNESCO. UNESCO admitted Palestine as a full member of the Paris-based agency in 2011. On 29 November 2012, the United Nations General Assembly voted to upgrade the status of the Palestinians to that of a "non-member observer state."
