Education: en quête d'une utopie nécessaire (Le Courrier de l’UNESCO no. 1, Janvier-Mars 2018) Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: UNESCO À une époque où la tension ne cesse de croître, où les droits de l'homme, la liberté d'expression, la paix et l'avenir de la planète semblent plus que jamais remis en question, le pouvoir de transformation véhiculé par l'éducation revêt une importance cruciale.L’éducation est une « utopie nécessaire », elle est « un atout indispensable pour permettre à l’humanité de progresser vers les idéaux de paix, de liberté et de justice sociale », lit‑on dans le rapport historique de l’UNESCO, L’éducation : un trésor est caché dedans, élaboré par la Commission internationale sur l'éducation pour le XXIe siècle, présidée en 1996 par Jacques Delors.L'éducation n'y est présentée ni comme miracle, ni comme baguette magique, mais comme le meilleur moyen de favoriser un climat permettant à l'humanité de s’améliorer.Notre humanité est confrontée à un paradoxe très étrange : la population mondiale n’a jamais été aussi instruite, alors que, selon l’Institut de statistiques de l’UNESCO, 263 millions d’enfants et de jeunes ne sont pas scolarisés, que 617 millions d’enfants et d’adolescents dans le monde n’atteignent pas le seuil minimal de compétence en lecture et en mathématiques, qu’au moins 750 millions d’adultes sont analphabètes, et que les filles demeurent plus susceptibles que les garçons de ne jamais mettre les pieds dans une classe. Cependant l’éducation est toujours appelée à remédier aux inégalités, à la pauvreté, au terrorisme et aux conflits. Elle est considérée comme une des clés essentielles de la citoyenneté mondiale et du développement durable, deux domaines d’action de l’UNESCO, qui a aussi pour mandat de diriger l’agenda mondial Éducation2030 en veillant tout particulièrement à ce que personne ne soit laissé pour compte.Sous le titre « Éducation : en quête d'une utopie nécessaire », Le Courrier de l'UNESCO porte un regard panoramique sur l'éducation dans le monde et explore comment elle peut répondre à certains grands défis. 
International Technical Guidance on Sexuality Education: An Evidence-Informed Approach Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) | United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) | United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) | United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) | World Health Organization (WHO) The UN International technical guidance on sexuality education was first published in 2009 as an evidence-informed approach for schools, teachers and health educators.Recognizing the dynamic shifts in the field of sexuality education that have occurred since then, an expanded group of UN co-publishing partners has reviewed and updated the content to respond appropriately to the contemporary needs of young learners, and to provide support for education systems and practitioners seeking to address those needs. The International technical guidance on sexuality education (revised edition) provides sound technical advice on the characteristics of effective comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) programmes; a recommended set of topics and learning objectives that should be covered in comprehensive sexuality education; and, recommendations for planning, delivering and monitoring effective CSE programmes. This revised edition of the Guidance reaffirms the position of sexuality education within a framework of human rights and gender equality, and promotes structured learning about sex and relationships in a manner that is positive, affirming, and centred on the best interests of the young person. It is based on a review of the latest evidence and lessons-learned from implementing CSE programmes across the globe. The revised Guidance reflects the contribution of sexuality education to the realization of multiple Sustainable Development Goals, notably Goal 3 on good health and well-being for all, Goal 4 on quality education for all, and Goal 5 to achieve gender equality.
