Analysing how far the ideals of SDG 4.7 are embodied in policies and curricula across 22 Asian countries, this study establishes benchmarks against which future progress can be assessed. It also argues forcefully that we must redefine the purposes of schooling, addressing the fundamental challenges to efforts to promote peace, sustainability and global citizenship through education.
