Derecho a la educación y escolarización en América Latina Year of publication: 2020 Author: Mariela Alejandra Acevedo | Felicitas Acosta | Myriam Feldfeber | Pablo Imen | María Mercedes Palumbo | Fernanda Saforcada | Soledad Vercellino Corporate author: Universidad Nacional de General Sarmiento | Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales (CLACSO) La extensión del derecho a la educación en América Latina forma parte del debate contemporáneo acerca de la escolarización. Las reformas educativas de la última parte del siglo XX y comienzos del siglo XXI en la región acompañaron dicho debate: sanción de nuevas leyes, cambios en la estructura de los sistemas educativos, reformas curriculares, revisión de la enseñanza en el aula, modificación de la formación docente son algunas de las maneras que adoptan estas reformas. Las modificaciones en los sistemas educativos también se encuentran atravesadas por la emergencia de nuevos actores, temas y formas de intervención: desde las pruebas internacionales estandarizadas, la participación de la sociedad civil y las organizaciones no gubernamentales, hasta la introducción de contenidos vinculados con cuestiones de género y sexualidad. Este libro reúne trabajos que intentan dar cuenta del conjunto de cambios mencionados desde diferentes perspectivas: histórica, política, filosófica y pedagógica. Reúne también los artículos premiados del concurso de ensayos CLACSO-UNGS sobre el derecho a la educación en el marco del Eje Educación del programa Democracias en revolución/Revoluciones en democracia.
Global Education Monitoring Report, 2021, Central and Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia: Inclusion and Education; All Means All Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: Global Education Monitoring Report Team | European Agency for Special Needs and Inclusive Education | Network of Education Policy Centers Prepared by the Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report, in partnership with the European Agency for Special Needs and Inclusive Education and the Network of Education Policy Centers, the regional report on inclusion and education in Central and Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia offers a deep dive into the core challenges and key solutions. The region is working hard to overcome a legacy, whereby children with disabilities attended special schools, once wrongly regarded as an effective solution, segregated by type of disability, if not fully excluded from education.The report draws on in-depth profiles of 30 education systems in the region. It also presents the additional risks to inclusion now posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Building on the 2020 Global Education Monitoring Report, it documents barriers facing learners, particularly where multiple disadvantages intersect. Its recommendations provide a systematic framework for identifying and dismantling these barriers, according to the principle that ‘every learner matters and matters equally’.
