ПЕРЕОСМЫСЛИМ НАШЕ БУДУЩЕЕ Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: International Commission on the Futures of Education | UNESCO Наше человечество, наша планета находятся в опасности, пандемия лишь подтвердила нашу хрупкость и взаимозависимость, чтобы изменить ход вещей и переосмыслить наше будущее, необходимы неотложные совместные действия; в этом докладе Международной комиссии по перспективам образования подтверждается способность образования к осуществлению коренных изменений.

Для этого нам нужен новый общественный договор в области образования, который сможет устранять проявления несправедливости, преобразуя будущее.Этот новый общественный договор должен основываться на принципах прав человека, недопущения дискриминации, социальной справедливости, уважения жизни, человеческого достоинства и культурного разнообразия. Он должен включать в себя этику заботы о людях, взаимности и солидарности. Он должен укреплять позиции образования как общественного дела и общего блага.Этот доклад, который готовился два года на основе глобального процесса консультаций с участием миллиона человек, предлагает правительствам, учреждениям, организациям и гражданам всего мира разработать новый общественный договор в области образования, который поможет нам построить мирное, справедливое и устойчивое будущее, отвечающее всеобщим интересам.Представленные здесь концепции, принципы и предложения являются лишь отправной точкой. Их воплощение в практику в конкретных условиях – это коллективная работа. Уже есть много положительных моментов, и в настоящем докладе предпринята попытка их отразить и развить. Это не инструкция и не план, а начало жизненно важного разговора.

Understanding Policy Instrument Choice Concerning Citizenship in Education and Youth Policies: A Typology of Public Tools (Citoyenneté des enfants et des adolescents; no. 80) Year of publication: 2018 Author: Valérie Becquet Corporate author: Lien social et Politiques This article proposes a typology of public action instruments mobilized in the education and youth sectors. Three main ones currently coexist: legislative and regulatory, conventional and incentive, informative and communicational. They favor dimensions of citizenship (legal, political and civil) and are aimed at both pupils and young people. This typology is a tool for grasping the meaning of public action, highlighting the preferences of decision-makers for certain types of devices2 and recalling that heterogeneous devices coexist and structure juvenile experiences. In this regard, the taking into account of these devices in the analysis of careers and youth engagement practices is very uneven in the surveys, even though they constitute markers in the same way as other experiences contributing to political socialization, such as participation in protest actions. Given the development of public systems, this marginalization is not without effects on the understanding of the role of the latter in the construction of juvenile practices. After a general presentation of the typology, the main characteristics of the three identified instruments are analyzed.
