Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 (b). This matching accurately aligns major international organizations with their respective headquarters based on historical establishment and functional mandates.
- UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization): Established in 1945 and headquartered in Paris, France. It focuses on global peace through education and culture.
- IMF (International Monetary Fund): As a Bretton Woods institution, it is headquartered in Washington, D.C., alongside the World Bank.
- ILO (International Labour Organization): Founded in 1919 under the League of Nations, it is the oldest specialized agency of the UN, located in Geneva, Switzerland.
- UNIDO (United Nations Industrial Development Organization): Established to promote industrial development, it is based in the Vienna International Centre in Vienna, Austria.
Option 2 correctly pairs these as: UNESCO-2, IMF-4, ILO-1, and UNIDO-3. Other options are incorrect as they misplace these distinct administrative hubs.
