Her Atlas: Interactive Advocacy Tool on Girls’ and Women’s Right to Education Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: UNESCO Many girls and women cannot exercise their right to education due to gender inequality and discriminatory practices. Poverty, early marriage, and gender-based violence are just some of the many reasons behind the high percentage of global female illiteracy and school drop-outs. Strengthening the right of girls and women to quality education is key to eliminate discrimination and to achieve equal rights between genders. This cannot be achieved without solid national legal frameworks that are rightsbased, gender responsive and inclusive. This is where HerAtlas comes in. HerAtlas, is a first of its kind online tool that maps the right to education of girls and women. It aims to enhance public knowledge and monitor the status of national constitutions, legislation and regulations related to education rights for girls and women to encourage countries to take action, strengthen their laws and policies, and lead to long term change. Concrete changes are already apparent. In 2019, 4% of countries were explicitly restricting the right to education of married, pregnant, and parenting girls. This has dropped to 2% in 2022, benefiting millions of girls who can now legally attend school when they marry or become pregnant.

Recommendation on Education for Peace and Human Rights, International Understanding, Cooperation, Fundamental Freedoms, Global Citizenship and Sustainable Development Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: UNESCO Building more peaceful, just, and sustainable societies starts with education. It influences all aspects of our daily lives and our overall prospects while being impacted by our health and environment. In the global landscape of worsening climate change, democratic backsliding, persistent inequalities, rising discrimination, hate speech, violence and conflict, it can be a tool to address and prevent these problems in the future. And it can also be a long-term investment with increasing returns if shaped and deployed effectively. The new UNESCO Recommendation on Education for Peace and Human Rights, International Understanding, Cooperation, Fundamental Freedoms, Global Citizenship and Sustainable Development, which is commonly referred to as the Recommendation on Education for Peace, Human Rights and Sustainable Development is a landmark guidance document that defines what needs to evolve in and through education to accomplish these goals. 평화, 인권, 국제이해, 협력, 기본적 자유, 세계시민성, 지속가능발전을 위한 교육 권고 Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: 유네스코 이 권고는 ‘국제이해, 협력, 평화를 위한 교육과 인권, 기본적 자유에 관한 교육 권고(1974)’를 개정하여 2023년 제42차 유네스코 총회가 채택한 것이다. 
South-Eastern Europe regional synthesis: climate change, displacement and the right to education Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: UNESCO In 2021 alone, 23.7 million people were displaced in 137 countries and territories due to natural disasters, which the scientific community has recognized have become more frequent and intense due to climate change. Climate change and displacement is currently taking place in Europe, with particularly disastrous consequences in South-Eastern Europe due to regional specificities. Comparative country case studies were carried out in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Republic of Moldova, and Serbia, as they exemplify clear, present patterns of climate displacement, to examine the impacts of climate change on the right to education in the region. The case studies show that climate change directly threatens education through the destruction of schools and property. It also indirectly puts learning in peril by leading people across borders where their legal residency nor right to education is ensured. This publication aims to guide policy-makers by providing recommendations on how to ensure the protection of the right to education in South-Eastern Europe in the face of climate change and displacement. It is one of four regional reports that will lead to the development of a global report providing global policy guidance. 
Central America and the Caribbean regional synthesis: climate change, displacement and the right to education Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: UNESCO From rising sea level to drought and increasingly frequent natural disasters - the effects of climate change are well-known today. However, its effect on human mobility is just coming to the forefront of the political discussion. In 2020 alone, 30.7 million people globally were displaced by natural disasters. Central America and the Caribbean region is prone to the effects of climate change and displacement due to its socioeconomic characteristics and geographic location. Country case studies were carried out in the Bahamas, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, and Jamaica to examine the impacts on the right to education in the region. The research shows that climate change directly threatens education through the destruction of schools and property. It also leads people across borders where their legal residency and right to education are not guaranteed. This report aims to guide policy-makers on how to ensure education is protected in the face of climate change and displacement. The report is one of four being developed and will contribute to UNESCO’s global initiative on climate change, displacement and the right to education. It will inform the development of a Global Report with policy recommendations. 
Empowering Learners and Teachers for Climate Action Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: UNESCO Climate change is impacting every aspect of life around the world and posing a growing threat to people and their livelihoods. It is critical to equip learners with the knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviours to effectively address the climate crisis. Globally, there remain significant gaps in how climate change education and sustainability are taught in classrooms. Getting every learner climate-ready requires a holistic approach that involves adapting curricula, training teachers, rethinking schools and empowering communities. As part of its ongoing work on Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) and its role as secretariat to the Greening Education Partnership, UNESCO is currently developing a Green School Quality Standard and Greening Curriculum Guidance to mainstream climate education in schools and educational institutions. 
Kit de herramientas global sobre IA y el estado de derecho para el poder judicial Year of publication: 2023 Author: Miriam Stankovich | Ivana Feldfeber | Yasmín Quiroga | Marianela Ciolfi Felice | Vukosi Marivate Corporate author: UNESCO ¿Qué es la Inteligencia artificial (IA)? ¿Cómo funciona? Y lo que es más importante, ¿cómo se abre camino en el contexto judicial? Tecnologías como la IA han existido durante décadas, pero solo recientemente han comenzado a usarse en una variedad de entornos de justicia y aplicación de la ley. Si bien la IA tiene un inmenso potencial para el sistema de justicia, ya que ayuda a los jueces a tomar mejores decisiones, mejora la eficiencia, aumenta el acceso y ayuda a detectar y prevenir el delito, también existen algunas cuestiones importantes que las partes interesadas en la justicia deben tener en cuenta mientras se preparan para un futuro en el que la IA se utiliza cada vez más en los sistemas de justicia. En 2022, la UNESCO lanzó dos evaluaciones de necesidades. En primer lugar, a través de la Encuesta de evaluación de necesidades de inteligencia artificial de la UNESCO en África, el 90 % de los 32 países encuestados solicitaron apoyo para el desarrollo de capacidades para el poder judicial en materia de IA. Al mismo tiempo, una segunda encuesta mundialde actores judiciales en 100 países subrayó la necesidad de comprender mejor el uso de la IA en la administración de justicia y sus repercusiones jurídicas más amplias en las sociedades. El “Kit de herramientas mundial sobre la IA y el Estado de derecho” para el Poder Judicial responde a estas necesidades y proporciona a los actores judiciales (jueces, fiscales, fiscales estatales, abogados públicos, universidades de derecho e instituciones de formación judicial) el conocimiento y las herramientas necesarias para comprender los beneficios y riesgos de la IA en su trabajo. El kit de herramientas ayudará a los actores judiciales a mitigar los posibles riesgos de la IA para los derechos humanos al brindar orientación sobre las leyes, principios, normas y jurisprudencia internacional de derechos humanos relevantes que sustentan el uso ético de la IA. 
Why the World Needs Happy Schools: Global Report on Happiness In and For Learning Year of publication: 2024 Corporate author: UNESCO Seeing a teacher smile. Hearing students laugh. Feeling a hug from a friend. Smelling fresh air. Tasting a nutritious school meal. These five senses can stimulate happiness at school and improve the learning experiences, outcomes and well-being of students. Through the ‘Happy Schools’ initiative, UNESCO is placing happiness at the core of the transformation of education. It encourages education systems to recognize happiness as both a means to and a goal of quality learning. The initiative is informed by a growing evidence base linking happiness with better learning, teaching, well-being and overall system resilience. This report presents the UNESCO global Happy Schools framework consisting of 4 pillars – people, process, place and principles – and 12 high-level criteria to guide the transformation of learning. It offers a holistic model for embedding happiness into education policies and cultivating it in schools through systemic changes. The report illustrates how the ‘Happy Schools’ initiative aims to create top-down and bottom-up transformation, encouraging governments to recognize happiness as a core objective of education. It supports the scaling of promising practices of joyful learning from the school to the policy level.
