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. Перед нами стоит двойная задача – выполнить невыполненное обещание обеспечить право на качественное образование для каждого ребёнка, молодого человека и взрослого и полностью реализовать преобразующий потенциал образования, способного проложить путь к устойчивому коллективному будущему. 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. 
Youth of Central Asia, Challenges for Peacebuilding: A Comprehensive Research Review Year of publication: 2021 Author: Laura Yerekesheva Corporate author: UNESCO The estimations are that by 2030, the world will be home to 1.3 billion young people. This speaks about the importance of the youth for development in various parts of the globe, particularly in developing countries which constitute 90% of the global youth population. From comprehensive holistic perspective peace, peacebuilding and dialogue embrace all aspects and dimensions of life – inter-generational, social, economic, political, ethnic, religious, civic, ideological, cultural, and natural. The youth related issues are directly linked with the SDGs agenda. Central Asian states are also on the list of developing countries, with an increasing demographic share of the youth in the general population, meaning that the countries of the region are “young.” As of 2020, the total population of the four countries of Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan) was 68.46 million, of which youth comprised 16.55 million or 24,1%. What Challenges for Peacebuilding the Youth of Central Asia Face? This highlights the urgency required for elaborating and implementing special policies on youth development. For Central Asia, the peace and peacebuilding agenda is the development agenda, and vice versa, as neither is possible without the other, and these in turn are intrinsically linked with youth-related issues. This report provides a detailed overview of the existing challenges to the youth of the 4 countries of the region – Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan Tajikistan, Uzbekistan – structured around three main themes of peacebuilding: (1) an education and learning environment; (2) economic and social participation; and (3) civic engagement. Governments, international organizations, professionals and policymakers in the youth, peacebuilding and development sectors, academia and NGOs are invited to join forces to accelerate the achievement of youth development for a more just, sustainable and peaceful future. Молодежь Центральной Азии, Вызовы миростроительству : Комплексный исследовательский обзор Year of publication: 2021 Author: Laura Yerekesheva Corporate author: Организация Объединенных Наций по вопросам образования, науки и культуры (UNESCO) По оценкам, к 2030 году в мире будут проживать 1,3 миллиарда молодых людей. Это говорит о важной роли, которую будет играть молодежь, особенно в развивающихся странах, в которых проживает 90% общего мирового населения молодежи. В рамках всеобъемлющего системного подхода, мир, миростроительство и диалог подразумевают все аспекты и измерения жизни - межпоколенческие, социальные, экономические, политические, этнические, религиозные, гражданские, идеологические, культурные и природные. Вопросы, связанные с молодежью, напрямую связаны с повесткой в области достижения Целей устойчивого развития (ЦУР). Государства Центральной Азии относятся к развивающимся странам с высокой долей молодежи в общем составе населения, что делает эти страны «молодыми». По состоянию на 2020 год общая численность населения четырех стран Централь ной Азии (Казахстана, Кыргызстана, Таджикистана и Узбекистана) - 68,46 миллиона человек, из которых молодежь составляла 16,55 миллиона человек или 24,1%.Это свидетельствует о важности разработки и реализации специальных стратегий и мер по развитию молодежи. Для Центральной Азии повестка дня в области мира и миростроительства – это, прежде всего, повестка дня в области развития, и наоборот, поскольку обе они взаимосвязаны между собой, а также с проблемами молодежи.В данном отчете представлен подробный обзор существующих вызовов, с которыми сталкивается молодежь четырех стран региона - Казахстана, Кыргызстана, Таджикистана, Узбекистана. Данные вызовы структурированы вокруг трех основных тем миростроительства: (1) образование и обучающая среда; (2) экономическое и социальное участие; и (3) гражданское участие.Правительствам, международным организациям, специалистам и политикам, работающим в сферах молодежи, миростроительства и развития, академическим кругам и неправительственным организациям предлагается объединить усилия для ускорения достижения целей развития молодежи для более справедливого, устойчивого и мирного будущего. 
[Résumé] Repenser nos futurs ensemble: Un nouveau contrat social pour l’éducation Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: International Commission on the Futures of Education | Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) Devant la menace qui pèse sur les futurs communs de l’humanité et de la planète Terre, il est devenu urgent d’entreprendre une action commune pour changer de cap et repenser nos futurs. Des responsabilités nouvelles, pressantes et importantes incombent notamment à l’éducation, un secteur qui a été et continue d’être un puissant vecteur de changement positif. Publié par la Commission internationale sur Les futurs de l’éducation, le présent rapport est le résultat d’une consultation mondiale qui a mobilisé près d’un million de personnes. Il invite les gouvernements, les institutions, les organisations et les citoyens à travers le monde à élaborer un nouveau contrat social pour l’éducation qui nous aidera à construire, ensemble et pour tous, des futurs pacifiques, justes et durables. À travers un examen approfondi de différentes questions ayant trait aux technologies numériques, au changement climatique, au recul démocratique, à la polarisation sociétale et à l’avenir incertain du marché du travail, ce rapport entend non seulement lancer un débat ouvert sur l’éducation pour susciter la réflexion, mais aussi inciter chacun d’entre nous à agir ; son argument central étant que grâce à des millions d’actes individuels et collectifs de courage, de leadership, de résistance, de créativité et d’intérêt pour autrui, nous parviendrons à changer de cap et à transformer l’éducation pour favoriser l’avènement de futurs justes, équitables et durables. [Резюм] Совместное переосмысление наших перспектив: Новый социальный договор в интересах образования Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: International Commission on the Futures of Education | Организация Объединенных Наций по вопросам образования, науки и культуры (UNESCO) Все человечество и планета Земля находятся под угрозой. Для изменения ситуации и переосмысления будущего необходимы безотлагательные действия, предпринятые каждым из нас. Перед образованием, которое уже давно признано влиятельным фактором позитивных изменений, стоит новая, срочная и важная задача. Данный доклад Международной комиссии по Перспективам образования, основанный на глобальном процессе консультаций с участием около миллиона человек, предлагает правительствам, учреждениям, организациям и гражданам всего мира заключить новый общественный договор в области образования, который поможет нам построить мирные отношения, создавая справедливое и устойчивое будущее вместе и для каждого. В докладe подробно рассматриваются цифровые технологии, изменение климата, отсутствие успеха в достижении демократии и поляризация общества, а также неопределенные перспективы трудоустройства. Доклад направлен не только на то, чтобы стимулировать обсуждение о вопросах образования и побудить к размышлениям, но и на то, чтобы призвать каждого из нас к активным действиям. Основная его идея заключается в том, что только через миллионы индивидуальных и коллективных актов мужества, лидерства, сопротивления, творчества и заботы мы сможем изменить курс и преобразить систему образования для построения справедливого, равноправного и устойчивого будущего.
