Countering Terrorism through Education of Populations: The Case of African Countries Year of publication: 2011 Author: Simon M. Lelo Le terrorisme est devenu un enjeu de premier ordre pour les gouvernements actuels. Les pays africains prennent également part à la lutte contre le terrorisme ; cependant, à cause de problèmes de sécurité nationale et de développement, leur participation effective dans le combat contre le terrorisme reste très limitée. Ces pays manquent de moyen pour pouvoir y participer de manière plus active. Ainsi, l'éducation doit être privilégiée afin de soutenir les efforts de prévention dans les pays africains. L’éducation n'apporte pas seulement des connaissances aux apprenants, elle permet également de prendre des décisions, et de mettre en place des stratégies et des mesures de manière informée. La communauté internationale doit aider les pays africains à renforcer leurs systèmes éducatifs à travers divers programmes de formation.

Integrating current thinking on twenty-first-centry competencies and deeper learning, and deploying pedagogies that cultivate student responsibility, imagination, and creativity, such as project-based learning and design thinking, this book is a blueprint to reinvent education to empower global citizens. Education as a Security Issue Author: Ian Jamison Corporate author: Tony Blair Faith Foundation The use of education as both tool and target of religious extremists globally is perhaps one of the most important generational challenges we face today. To ensure that the next generation is open to a more pluralistic world, we must ensure that their education equips them to safely encounter the 'Other'. This not only means improving knowledge, understanding and interaction, but also critically requires investment in developing essential soft skills that can ensure these are properly employed. Education as a Security Issue Author: Ian Jamison Corporate author: Tony Blair Faith Foundation Le recours des extrémistes religieux à l'éducation comme, à la fois, outil et cible est peut-être l'un des défis les plus importants de cette génération, auquel nous sommes confrontés aujourd'hui dans le monde. Pour que la prochaine génération soit ouverte à un monde plus pluraliste, nous devons veiller à ce que leur éducation les prépare à des échanges pacifiques avec « l’Autre ». Cela signifie non seulement d’améliorer les connaissances, la compréhension et l'interaction, mais aussi d’investir urgemment dans le développement des compétences générales essentielles qui en garantissent une bonne utilisation. Case Study - Pakistan: Education, Religion and Conflict Year of publication: 2015 Author: Raza Rumi Corporate author: Tony Blair Faith Foundation | McGill University Pakistan is in the midst of crisis. It is threatened by virulent extremist groups and is suffering from a failing education system that is poorly funded and politically manipulated. It promulgates an undefined Islamo-nationalist ideology that lays the foundations for widespread acceptance of ideologically motivated violence. Reforms to the curriculum have been legislated but are badly implemented by the country's politicians; the international community has largely turned a blind eye to these shortcomings. Unless aid and advocacy are specifically focused on far-reaching educational reform that directly tackles extremism, the long-term consequences will be extremely severe. Case Study - Pakistan: Education, Religion and Conflict Year of publication: 2015 Author: Raza Rumi Corporate author: Tony Blair Faith Foundation | McGill University Le Pakistan traverse une crise. Il est menacé par des groupes extrémistes virulents et souffre d'un système éducatif défaillant, mal financé et manipulé politiquement. Il promulgue une idéologie islamo-nationaliste vague qui jette les bases d'une large acceptation de la violence idéologique. Il y a une législation sur les réformes du programme mais celles-ci sont mal appliquées par les politiciens du pays ; la communauté internationale dans son ensemble a fermé les yeux sur ces lacunes. Si l'assistance et le plaidoyer ne sont pas spécifiquement axés sur une vaste réforme de l'éducation abordant directement l'extrémisme, les conséquences à long terme seront extrêmement graves.
