This study concentrates on UNICEF's program The Investment Case of Education and Equity and analyse it based on Foucault's concept of governmentality. Special interest is in questions about how you can govern from trough the program from distance and how the principles of governmentality can be seen in this specific program. International organizations have rose on the side of states to the global field of power. The UN and UNICEF are one of the biggest of them and their area of influence covers the whole world. UNICEF published in the beginning of the year 2105 the program, which concentrates on developing children's possibilities for education and its quality in developing countries. One of its main goals is to prevent every school age child the possibility to go to school and lift the quality of education. With the concept of governmentality, I try analyse how power and governing can be seen in the program and its different shapes. The concept tries to create a link between different shapes of power and subjective processes. My aim is to analyse the program I have chosen trough governmentalities three main perspective; creating a problem, solving the problem and the discourse of the program. On top of this I try to open up the main goals of the program. I use discourse analysis to do this.
