Regional overview: Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia Year of publication: 2015 Corporate author: UNESCO Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and Central Asia (CA) have both made significant advances towards Education for All (EFA) since 1999. However, the 2015 EFA Global Monitoring Report shows that despite progress, Education For All remains unfinished business, including in Central and Eastern Europe and in Central Asia. This must be taken into account in the post-2015 agenda. 
UNESCO education strategy 2014-2021 Year of publication: 2014 Corporate author: UNESCO This publication is a result of extensive collective work by my colleagues in UNESCO’s Education Sector over the past two years. It elaborates on UNESCO’s Medium-Term Strategy (2014–2021), which was drafted by the Organization’s Secretariat and approved by the 37th session of its General Conference in November 2013. This publication elaborates on the education component of the Medium-Term Strategy. While continuing to focus efforts on the ‘unfinished business’ of EFA, such as literacy, teachers and vocational skills development, UNESCO will lead and advocate for strengthened action towards empowering learners to be creative and responsible citizens. In a world of change, when individuals are increasingly called upon to make a positive contribution to their communities through the promotion of peace, solidarity, and respect for others and the environment, I am convinced that Education for Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship Education must also be considered crucial elements for well-rounded educational systems. UNESCO education strategy 2014-2021 Year of publication: 2014 Corporate author: UNESCO Cette publication est le résultat d'une vaste travail collectif par mes collègues dans le secteur de l'éducation de l'UNESCO au cours des deux dernières années. Il élabore sur la stratégie à moyen terme de l'UNESCO (2014-2021), qui a été élaboré par le Secrétariat de l'Organisation et approuvé par la 37e session de la Conférence Générale en Novembre 2013. Cette publication développe sur le volet éducation de la Stratégie à Moyen Terme. Tout en continuant à concentrer les efforts sur le «travail inachevé» de l'EPT, tels que l'alphabétisation, les enseignements et le développement des compétences professionnelles, l'UNESCO dirigera et plaider pour une action renforcée vers l'autonomisation des apprenants à être des citoyens créatifs et responsables. Dans un monde de changement, lorsque les individus sont de plus en plus appelés à apporter une contribution positive à leurs communautés par la promotion de la paix, la solidarité et le respect des autres et de l'environnement, je suis convaincu que l'Éducation pour le Développement Durable et de l'Éducation à la Citoyenneté Mondiale doivent aussi être considérés comme des éléments cruciaux pour les systèmes éducatifs bien arrondis.

Strong foundations for gender equality in early childhood care and education: advocacy brief Year of publication: 2007 Corporate author: UNESCO The term Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) refers to services for children from birth to eight years of age. These include educating parents in how to care for their children and help them learn, as well as providing community-run and formal preschool programmes for pre-primary school-aged boys and girls. Given the varying needs of children from birth to eight years, educators have found it best to have different policies and strategies for children below and above three years of age. This brief focuses on the gender issues in the services provided for children who are three years of age or older in the Asia-Pacific region. Its scope is informed by UNESCO's commitment to holistic pre-primary services for this age group. The goal is to provide early childhood education that helps girls and boys succeed in primary school and in learning throughout their lives. The brief starts by looking into the growth of ECCE in the Asia-Pacific region and what is driving this growth. It explores why gender responsiveness is important in early childhood education, gives practical examples of what this looks like, and discusses the challenges of providing ECCE that equally values and benefits each girl and each boy. Flowing from this, the brief concludes with recommendations on how to make ECCE more gender responsive De solides fondations pour l'égalité des sexes dans les soins de la petite enfance et de l'éducation: le plaidoyer bref Year of publication: 2007 Corporate author: UNESCO Le terme de l’éducation et la protection de la petite enfance (EPPE) fait référence aux services pour les enfants de la naissance à huit ans.

Il explore pourquoi le genre de réaction est important dans l'éducation de la petite enfance, donne des exemples concrets de ce que cela ressemble, et examine les défis de fournir EPPE que de façon égale les valeurs et les avantages de chaque fille et chaque garçon. Découlant de cela, le mémoire se termine par des recommandations sur la façon de rendre sensible EPPE plus le sexe. 
[Summary] Global Education Monitoring Report Summary 2019: Migration, Displacement and Education: Building Bridges, Not Walls Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: UNESCO | Global Education Monitoring Report Team This Report points directly to a major challenge: How can teachers be supported to practise inclusion? It offers us fascinating insights into humanity and the age-old phenomenon of migration. I invite you to consider its recommendations and to act on them. This report is a vital toolkit for these compacts. It covers policy issues that address seasonal migrants, rural school consolidation, intercultural curricula, refugee inclusion in national education systems and elimination of segregation, qualifications recognition, targeting of school funding, more effective humanitarian education aid and teacher preparedness for diverse classrooms in emergency, protracted and “new normal” contexts. This summary of the 2019 GEM Report calls on countries to see education as a tool to manage migration and displacement and an opportunity for those needing one.
