La Prévention de l’extrémisme violent par l’éducation: activités efficaces et impact; note d’orientation Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) Depuis 2015, l’UNESCO a mis en avant l’importance de l’éducation dans la prévention de l’extrémisme violent (PEV-E), dans le cadre de ses efforts pour faire progresser l’éducation à la citoyenneté mondiale (ECM). Malgré le nombre croissant d’activités de PEV-E à travers le monde, il manque des preuves de leur efficacité et leur impact.Ce document d’orientation a pour objectif de répondre à deux questions : (i) Quels types d’activités de PEV-E paraissent plus efficaces ? et (ii) Quel est l’impact prouvé des activités de PEV-E ?L’objectif est d’aider les acteurs de l’éducation à entreprendre des programmes ayant un plus grand impact et à prendre des décisions éclairées sur les priorités en matière de dépenses.Le document d’orientation montre que la PEV-E fonctionne, mettant en évidence divers types d’activités qui se sont avérées particulièrement efficaces. Il recommande enfin des actions à entreprendre pour obtenir davantage de preuves sur ce qui fonctionne ou pas. 
International Day against Homophobia & Transphobia: Lesson Plan Year of publication: 2014 Corporate author: UNESCO Each year, the world celebrates the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHO) on May 17th. During the days surrounding IDAHO, private and public actors, ranging from the United Nations agencies, to city councils, police stations, human rights organiza-tions, individual citizens, schools and others, implement activities to mark the day. The theme of this year’s IDAHO is “Fighting homophobia and transphobia IN and THROUGH education”. This theme was selected in response to a growing awareness that homophobic and transphobic bullying in schools which are manifestations of homophobia and transphobia, are serious issues that students and educational staff face every day across the world.Over the years, teachers around the world have been developing activities in their classrooms, with the help of various organizations working on efforts to address and homophobia and transphobia in educational institutions. Building on the success of these experiences, UNESCO and the IDAHO Committee propose teachers take advantage of the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia to conduct an ‘IDAHO Lesson’. The four activities proposed below are aimed at both primary and secondary level classes. A list of resources from other organizations for teachers, for all subjects and all grades is included below to enable greater choice of possible activities. By conducting an “IDAHO Lesson”, you can create safer learning environments, address discrimination and encourage respect and tolerance between and amongst learners.(Title: International Day against Homophobia and Transphobia: Lesson Plan) Combattre l’homophobie et la transphobie : Propositions pédagogiques Year of publication: 2014 Corporate author: Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) Le présent programme pédagogique a été élaboré à l’occasion de l’IDAHO 2012, autour du thème « Combattre l’homophobie et la transphobie DANS et PAR l’éducation », en réponse à la prise de conscience que le harcèlement homophobe ou transphobe dans les écoles sont des manifestations de l’homophobie et de la transphobie auxquelles étudiants et membres du corps enseignant du monde entier doivent faire face au quotidien. Un problème sérieux qui ne peut être ignoré.Diverses études démontrent que le harcèlement homophobe ou transphobe peut avoir de graves répercussions sur la santé physique et mentale des jeunes gens et jeunes filles qui le subissent à un moment crucial de leur vie. Le harcèlement homophobe peut entraîner une baisse des performances d’apprentissage, voire, parfois, le décrochage scolaire. Les jeunes personnes lesbiennes, gays, bisexuelles, transgenres ou intersexes (LGBTI) victimes de harcèlement homophobe sont plus enclines à l’automutilation, et on dénombre parmi cette population beaucoup plus de cas de suicide que chez les autres jeunes. Les recherches révèlent aussi que les jeunes LGBTI ont tendance à adopter des comportements à haut risque tels que les rapports sexuels non protégés et la consommation de stupéfiants. 
Review of the Evidence on Sexuality Education: Report to Inform the Update of the UNESCO International Technical Guidance on Sexuality Education Year of publication: 2018 Author: Paul Montgomery | Wendy Knerr Corporate author: UNESCO UNESCO published the International Technical Guidance on Sexuality Education (ITGSE): An evidence-informed approach for schools, teachers and health educators, in 2009. It put forward the rationale for sexuality education, technical advice on characteristics of effective programmes, and topics and learning objectives to be covered in a ‘basic minimum package’ of sexuality education for children and young people aged 5–18+. Since the publication, UNESCO, several UNAIDS cosponsors and other international partners have advocated for ‘comprehensive sexuality education’ (CSE) for all adolescents and youth, and as an essential component of quality education.With the passage of time and the expanded understanding of the role of CSE, UNESCO sought to review the ITGSE with the aim of updating its content to reflect the evidence and lessons learned from implementing sexuality education programmes since 2009. UNESCO sought the technical services of a consultant team to conduct an evidence review to inform the update.This review would involve research on new evidence and good practice in sexuality education including evidence on the effectiveness of CSE and lessons documented through the implementation of sexuality education programmes to highlight benchmarks of quality CSE content and modalities of delivery. The research was also intended to make recommendations as to the: adequacy of existing content; presence of any gaps in this content; and evidence-based recommendations on how such content gaps can be addressed in the updated ITGSE. 
Media and Information Literacy: Reinforcing Human Rights, Countering Radicalization and Extremism (The MILID Yearbook, 2016) Year of publication: 2016 Author: Jagtar Singh | Paulette Kerr | Esther Hamburger Corporate author: UNESCO | Alliance of Civilizations Media and Information Literacy (MIL) is a strong tool, cutting across educational, cultural and social contexts. It can help overcome disinformation, stereotypes and intolerance conveyed through some media and in online spaces. Here, stimulating critical empathy is one of the vital components and there are many stakeholders that have a role to play in this dimension of MIL.This year’s edition is focused on a highly relevant theme of “Media and Information Literacy: Reinforcing Human Rights, Countering Radicalization and Extremism”. It is a relevant reference point to initiate discussion and offer perspectives to stakeholders seeking to apply MIL as a tool to counter violent extremism. There is evident need for evidence-based research, assessment and evaluation that can provide insight into the impact of media and information literacy on societies. UNESCO trusts that this publication will contribute to ongoing scholarship and debate on these key topics.For media and other information providers to serve their purpose, we need critical minds in the public, which means to develop MIL programmes at the national, regional and international levels.

Let's Decide How to Measure School Violence (Policy Paper 29) Year of publication: 2017 Corporate author: UNESCO Violence in schools and other education settings causes serious harm to children and adolescents that can last into adulthood. As the UN World Report on Violence against Children observed, it is a global phenomenon (Pinheiro, 2006). Policies, laws and strategies to prevent school-related violence depend on accurate knowledge of its global prevalence, trends and effects, but such evidence is lacking.In schools, manifestations of violence include bullying, corporal punishment, verbal and emotional abuse, intimidation, sexual harassment and assault, gang activity and the presence of weapons. While attention usually focuses on extreme events, the more common and often unnoticed forms of violence cause the greatest harm to the education experience of children and adolescents. These tend to be under-reported, as they often involve taboos.To collect data on aspects of violence in schools, large-scale, multi-country school-based surveys are increasingly used; some countries also have well-established monitoring mechanisms. Overall, however, consistent evidence on the global prevalence and trends of school-related violence is lacking. To ensure reliable data is gathered, action is needed to bridge differences between the various monitoring methods. This paper, launched to coincide with the International Symposium on School Violence and Bullying: From Evidence to Action, in Seoul, Republic of Korea (January 17–19, 2017), aims to inform the current debate and propose options for the future.
