Education Reform in Pakistan Year of publication: 2014 Corporate author: International Crisis Group En Avril 2010, le Pakistan s’est engagé, l'amendement constitutionnel XVIII, à mettre en place une éducation gratuite et obligatoire pour tous les enfants âgés de cinq à seize ans. Pourtant, des millions d’enfants ne sont encore à l'école et le système éducatif s’appauvrit d’une façon alarmante. Le secteur de la madrasa (école religieuse) fleurit, sans que des efforts significatifs soient déployés pour réglementer les séminaires, qui propagent souvent la haine religieuse et le sectarisme. La violence militante et les catastrophes naturelles ont aggravé l'état lamentable de l'éducation. Le système public de l'éducation doit favoriser une citoyenneté tolérante, compétitive sur le marché du travail et apportant son soutien aux normes démocratiques dans le pays et à la paix avec le monde extérieur. 
Global Citizenship Education and the Crises of Multiculturalism: Comparative Perspectives Year of publication: 2016 Author: Massimiliano Tarozzi, Carlos Alberto Torres The notion of global citizenship education (GCE) has emerged in the international education discourse in the context of the United Nations Education First Initiative that cites developing global citizens as one of its goals. In this book, the authors argue that GCE offers a new educational perspective for making sense of the existing dilemmas of multiculturalism and national citizenship deficits in diverse societies, taking into account equality, human rights and social justice.The authors explore how teaching and research may be implemented relating to the notion of global citizenship and discuss the intersections between the framework of GCE and multiculturalism. They address the three main topics which affect education in multicultural societies and in a globalized world, and which represent unsolved dilemmas: the issue of diversity in relation to creating citizens, the issue of equality and social justice in democratic societies, and the tension between the global and the local in a globalized world.Through a comparative study of the two prevailing approaches – intercultural education within the European Union and multicultural education in the United States – the authors seek what can be learned from each model. Global Citizenship Education and the Crises of Multiculturalism offers not only a unifying theoretical framework but also a set of policy recommendations aiming to link the two approaches. Preface 1.

Education and Security - a global literature review on the role of education in countering violent religious extremism Year of publication: 2016 Author: Ratna Ghosh | Ashley Manuel | W.Y. Alice Chan | Maihemuti Dilimulati | Mehdi Babaei This review demonstrates that the impact of the worldwide proliferation of violent attacks motivated by religious extremism threatens both national and personal security irrespective of location or faith. Education has been particularly damaged by direct attacks on institutions, by the removal of educational opportunity, and by the use of education to indoctrinate and recruit young people. This review suggests that more young people today are being radicalized through soft power – extremist ideas, ideology, narratives and propaganda. It questions whether this can be met adequately by hard power responses, as these methods appeal directly to the psychological, intellectual and emotional states of young people. Education and Security - a global literature review on the role of education in countering violent religious extremism Year of publication: 2016 Author: Ratna Ghosh | Ashley Manuel | W.Y. Alice Chan | Maihemuti Dilimulati | Mehdi Babaei Cette revue démontre que l'impact de la prolifération des attaques violentes motivées par un extrémisme religieux menace aussi bien la sécurité nationale que celle des individus, quelle que soit la religion et le pays. L'éducation a été particulièrement touchée par des attaques directes sur des institutions éducatives, par la perte de toute perspective d’éducation et par l'usage abusif de l'éducation pour endoctriner et enrôler les jeunes. Cette revue avance que, aujourd'hui, force est de constater que plus de jeunes se radicalisent par l'intermédiaire du « soft power » - idées extrémistes, idéologie, récits et propagande. Elle remet en question l'efficacité et l'adéquation des réponses sécuritaires, alors que ces méthodes agissent sur les jeunes à la fois sur les plans psychologique, intellectuel et émotionnel.
