Envisioning the Future of Assessment in Transformative Education: A Synthesis Report of the Expert Meeting on Evaluation and Assessment for Transformative Education: Towards and Beyond 2030 Year of publication: 2025 Author: Esther Care Corporate author: APCEIU Transformative education calls for learning that nurtures not only knowledge, but also the values, attitudes, and behaviours essential for inclusive, just, and sustainable societies. Recent global discussions, including UNESCO’s Reimagining Our Futures Together: A New Social Contract for Education and the Recommendation on Education for Peace and Human Rights, International Understanding, Cooperation, Fundamental Freedoms, Global Citizenship and Sustainable Development, emphasise learning that fosters critical thinking, empathy, cooperation, and action-oriented engagement. Within this vision, assessment needs to evolve from primarily measuring achievement to supporting a process of learning that actively enables and evidences learners’ reflection, growth, and empowerment. Traditional approaches, which prioritise standardisation and summative outcomes, are insufficient for capturing the complex competencies at the heart of transformative education, such as socio-emotional development, critical reflection, ethical reasoning, and responsible action. These limitations raise fundamental questions about not only how transformative learning outcomes can be assessed across diverse systems and contexts, but also what purposes assessment should serve.To examine these issues, APCEIU convened the Expert Meeting on Evaluation and Assessment for Transformative Education: Towards and Beyond 2030, held in Seoul, Republic of Korea, on 2–3 July 2025. The meeting brought together global experts, researchers, and policymakers to discuss current challenges, share emerging practices, and consider strategic directions for reimagining assessment in support of transformative education.Building on these rich discussions, this report synthesises the key reflections and forward-looking perspectives shared during the meeting. Part I presents analytical insights and strategic considerations for advancing assessment in transformative education, while Part II documents the meeting proceedings, including presentations and collaborative discussions. 
Participatory Diagnosis of Youth Perceptions and Attitudes Towards Hate Speech and Denialism of Gender Violence and Rights of Migrants From the Approaches of Global Citizenship Education Year of publication: 2024 Author: Bárbara Biglia | Aloe Cubero Corporate author: InteRed | Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (AECID) This diagnosis seeks to respond to the need to explore the perceptions and attitudes of youth regarding hate speech, specifically those that deny gender violence and the rights of migrants. We wanted to carry out this process recognizing the agency of young people and therefore we seek to generate collective and mobilizing reflections that increase their commitment as agents of change in our society.
