Quality Adult Education Benchmarks for Indigeneous Education Year of publication: 2011 Author: Sandra L. Morrison | Timote Vaioleti Corporate author: Asia South Pacific Association for Basic and Adult Education (ASPBAE) In November 2010, in Indonesia, Asia South Pacific Association for Basic and Adult Education(ASPBAE) brought together a number of educators from across its region to discuss benchmarking quality adult education for indigenous peoples. Educators came from across the ASPBAE region including the Philippines, India, Nepal, New Zealand, Australia, Thailand, Indonesia and Uzbekistan to share experiences and to build a collective understanding of what constitutes a good quality adult education program for indigenous peoples. Discussions were informed by a broader ASPBAE Quality Adult Education Framework, which had its origins in discussions held in 2009. The Core of the Framework is grounded on ASPBAEโs commitment to education as a right, adult education for transformation, and adult and basic education as integral and interโconnected components of the vision of lifelong learning (Guevara, 2010). Other frameworks promoted by ASPBAE for education to be empowering, proโpoor, gender just and sustainable were also important considerations. The 2010 gathering served as a nodal point to discuss the ASPBAE framework more deeply and to reaffirm or create a set of benchmarks for indigenous education which can be validated through a subsequent national and regional consultation process. 
Asia-Pacific Spotlight Report on SDG 4 Year of publication: 2019 Corporate author: Asia South Pacific Association for Basic and Adult Education (ASPBAE) ASPBAE believes that civil society must actively engage in the SDG process since we all have a stake in making sure that all the goals and targets are realised by 2030. Drawing on the spotlight reports of various national education coalitions in the Asia-Pacific region, this report is ASPBAEโs modest contribution to present the civil society analysis and perspective in the SDG/SDG 4 progress and implementation. At the same time, it highlights the concerns and aspirations of the most marginalised and excluded groups. In this regard, we urge the United Nations and all Member States to collectively reaffirm the earlier commitment made to reach the furthest behind first, ensuring that no one is left behind by 2030.
