    In which of the two sentences the word order is correct (I am translating the scenario of a conference):
    1) Deputy Chairman of the Russian Committee of UNESCO “Man and biosphere” program
    2)Deputy Chairman of the Russian Committee of UNESCO program “Man and biosphere” ?

    You examples aren't sentences. You can use either, but if you use the second, insert the comma.

    They are not sentences indeed (how stupid of me!). Thank you very much for the advice to use the comma, I have been looking for it for many years (really))))
