Равные возможности Обещание равенства для всех детей: Обещание равенства Year of publication: 2015 Corporate author: United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) Настоящий отчет основан на подробном документе, который обсуждался на специальной сессии Исполнительного комитета ЮНИСЕФ, посвященной вопросам равенства и справедливости, в Нью-Йорке в июне 2015 года. Работа ЮНИСЕФ строится на принципе равенства и справедливости, при этом основное внимание уделяется наиболее уязвимым группам детей во всем мире: детям из наиболее бедных семей и девочкам, детям с ограниченными возможностями, детям, живущим в удаленных районах, и детям из этнических или религиозных групп, сталкивающимся с дискриминацией. Представленный доклад, основываясь на фактах и опыте такой работы, приводит два основных довода в пользу устранения укоренившихся диспропорций, касающихся равенства и справедливости. В ней рассмотрены семь сфер, имеющих решающее значение для развития детеи: здоровье; ВИЧ и СПИД, вода, санитария и гигиена; питание, образование: защита ребенка; социальная интеграция. В каждой сфере наблюдаются резкие контрасты между глобальными улучшениями, с одной стороны, и неотложными неудовлетворенными потребностями наиболее уязвимых детей во всем мире - с другой.

Each chapter contains these elements: A definition of the key concept An example of the use of the concept in a human rights document A brief essay on the value of the concept for human rights education A series of activities that guide students in using gender, race/ethnicity/nation, and class as lenses for analyzing social justice issues include transnational and multicultural perspectives on gender and human rights issues use "best practices" pedagogies for teaching human rights topics in community colleges. Within each chapter, activities are orgaized from simple to complex. Most activities, however, have self-contained objectives and can be used independently of the others. Sections on “Extending the Learning” offer longer readings or in-depth material for advanced courses. The GCED Clearinghouse introduces only chapter 4, "global citizenship" of this SHERI project. 
Sharing Malaysian experience in participation of girls in STEM education Year of publication: 2016 Corporate author: UNESCO International Bureau of Education (IBE) The Malaysia government has placed STEM as a focus in developing the country towards achieving the status of a developed nation. The government acknowledges the role of women as equal partners in nation building. Thus, various policies ranging from economy, education, women’s welfare and human resources have been formulated through the years. These policies have resulted in among others, the increase in women researchers from 35.8% in 2004 to 49.9% in 2012 as well as more women’s participation in selected STEM courses at the tertiary level. A total of 84 girls’ day schools with 6 of them as residential STEM Girls’ schools have been built since 1939. There are many female role models in STEM for the girls to emulate. This has been made possible by the successful implementation of the various policies related to women in STEM as well as innovative measures in facing the continuing challenges in STEM education. 
Colour? What colour? Report on the fight against discrimination and racism in football Year of publication: 2015 Author: Albrecht Sonntag | David Ranc Corporate author: UNESCO Football has been shown to be a mirror of society, it may also be viewed as providing a temporary suspension of reality for an interlude of high emotion and idealized hopes and dreams. Football’s public transcends differences of age, gender, culture, religion, and socioeconomic status to unite in support of their team. The broad diversity of backgrounds of football players represents tangible evidence of equal opportunity and meritocracy. The sport itself has team solidarity, fair play and mutual respect among members and for opponents ingrained within its rules and practices. Yet, the ‘beautiful game’ is one with an imbedded paradox. Football is also a game that may in many vaguely resemble war, where opponents face each other in a struggle to win over the other side, with the noisy and emphatic support of the spectators. An ‘us’ and ‘them’ mentality is an integral part of trying to help a team reach the objective, which is to win the game. This setting naturally produces a desire by supporters to intimidate the other side by encouraging their team and expressing both confidence and superiority through their words and actions. When the ‘us’ and ‘them’ mentality turns into symbolic exclusion of others, language of disparagement and insult based on racism or discrimination, or physical confrontation, the ‘beautiful game’ is debased. The existence of racism and discrimination in football is not a secret, but it is a shame on the game. Although much is already being done, both observers and experts feel too many problems persist and measures to tackle them have not been effective enough. This report was commissioned by UNESCO within the framework of UNESCO’s partnership with Juventus. It focuses on discrimination and racism in professional football and to some extent the amateur clubs that funnel into the leagues. It provides an overview of the historic and theoretical background. It reports on the state of affairs on the ground. It summarizes what has been done and is being done to mitigate racism and discrimination in domestic and international football, how the effects of these actions may be evaluated, and which new avenues for further, complementary action are promising. The report is based on a literature review, desk research, regional reports from the Unesco network and a field survey among a purposive sample of experts and actors in a number of countries. The report has a somewhat European focus, in its sources and examples. Europe has a unique position Executive Summary in the world of football, with its leading competitions, championships and clubs. It is the region where racism and discrimination in football has been most intensively researched. A number of civil society organisations from Europe have played a pioneering role in the fight against racism and discrimination in football. Moreover, the pressure that comes with the money invested in and generated by western European football, as well as its exposure in the media, has also made clubs, federations and UEFA particularly sensitive to the negative impact that discrimination can have on the game and its image, within Europe and worldwide. Europe must therefore occupy a central role in a study of the fight against discrimination in professional football and in determined policies to mitigate racism and discrimination related to football wherever they occur. The examples of incidents of discrimination and racism, as well as of existing measures to combat them have been selected to be as wide-ranging as possible. The authors do not, however, claim the report to be a comprehensive listing. Similarly, the examples of best practice have been collected through extensive reading and contacts, but must be looked at as an overview rather than as a directory. They are chosen by the authors to illustrate types of actions and institutions with the potential for greatest impact. The report also does not deal with the methods of allocation of resources to football, with issues of employment, or with womens’ football. While these are significant topics on which concerns can be expressed, the necessary focus of a report of this type means that they are alluded to without being treated in depth.

L'Education pour les peuples et la planète: créer des avenirs durables pour tous, résumé du rapport mondial de suivi sur l'éducation, 2016 Year of publication: 2016 Corporate author: UNESCO The GEM Report provides an authoritative account of how education is the most vital input for every dimension of sustainable development.

Education is key to helping people around the world understand why sustainable development is such a vital concept for our common future. Education gives us the key tools – economic, social, technological, even ethical – to take on the SDGs and to achieve them. These facts are spelled out in exquisite and unusual detail throughout the report. Yet the report also emphasizes the remarkable gaps between where the world stands today on education and where it has promised to arrive as of 2030.
