Fostering Women's Leadership Year of publication: 2024 Author: Mariagrazia Squicciarini | Anna Rita Manca | Garance Sarlat Corporate author: UNESCO No (leadership) share no gain (for societies and economies)! Leveraging UNESCO’s unique Gender-Based Resilience Framework, this report explores the role of women in leadership positions in both decision-making and high-tech, including in artificial intelligence-related innovations. It further highlights progress towards the G20 Brisbane Target, aimed to accelerate progress on gender equality by reducing the gender gap in labour market participation rates by 25% by 2025. Women remain underrepresented in decision-making, holding only about 26% of seats in national parliaments worldwide on average. In the world of work, female labour participation continues to lag behind men’s, at 47% for women against 72% for men on average. Despite progress by G20 members towards the Brisbane Target, a 2% average gap in absolute terms remained to be filled in 2022. In the high-tech world, women make up only 30% of AI professionals, and even less of leaders. Female inventors in AI account for about 37% of patents filed in 2022-23.

Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UN. ESCAP) | International Labour Organization (ILO) | International Organization for Migration (IOM) | UN. Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (UN.

These chapters open with a summary of the discussions from the first regional review of the GCM, held in 2021, drawing from the Chair’s summary.

Global Education Monitoring Report 2025: Gender Report: Women Lead for Learning Year of publication: 2025 Corporate author: UNESCO Barriers to gender equality in education leadership positions can and need to be overcome This gender edition, which is part of the 2024/5 Global Education Monitoring Report on leadership in education, addresses the remaining obstacles for women in their efforts to climb up the leadership ladder in education. Although the teaching profession has been feminized, there are considerable gender gaps in school management, education administration and political leadership positions, a situation illuminated in detail with examples from all over the world. Gender disparity in education leadership is the result of entrenched stereotypes and biases – conscious or unconscious – on the one hand and on the other institutional processes or professional development mechanisms that are insufficiently supportive. Research suggests that women leaders display some differences relative to men in their approaches to education leadership, for example the extent to which they emphasize collaboration, build relationships with the community and retain a focus on learning. While there is little to suggest that these differences are universal or immutable, the evidence points to the fact that the lack of equitable opportunities translates to less talent and fewer diverse approaches to leadership, which are a loss to education systems – not to mention the obvious need for equity. This is particularly evident in parts of the world where gender disparities remain large. This gender edition calls on countries to take a much closer look at gender disparity in education leadership and adopt measures to raise awareness, improve mechanisms and strengthen capacities to address discrimination and bias and thus encourage women who aspire to such careers to pursue them.

Preparing for the Next Pandemic Leveraging Social and Human Sciences for Crisis: Lessons from COVID-19 Year of publication: 2024 Author: Erwan Dianteill | N'Dri Thérèse Assié-Lumumba Corporate author: UNESCO The Social Sciences Response to COVID-19 Understanding the social impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is crucial for crafting effective and inclusive recovery policies. Prior to the pandemic, growing gaps in well-being were already undermining environmental sustainability, the social fabric, and progress worldwide. Fragile and unequal systems proved to be a pre-existing aggravating condition that fuelled the pandemic on a global scale. COVID-19 widened the gap between developed countries—which already had the financial means to respond to the crisis and had easy access to the vaccine—and the rest of humanity, resulting in devastating effects in the Global South, with more than 130 million people crossing the poverty line. Addressed to policymakers and scholars, this publication presents a comprehensive state of knowledge of the social science perspectives on the COVID-19 pandemic, covering a wide range of topics from its impact on mental health, education, climate change, economy, governance, migration, demography, digitalization, and more. The authors analyse the challenges faced by society during the pandemic and present actionable proposals for policymakers and practitioners. This publication is a reminder of the importance of Social Sciences and Humanities in addressing global challenges and provides a roadmap for future research and policy action to build more resilient societies. 
Learning at Risk: the Impact of Climate Displacement on the Right to Education; Global Report Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: UNESCO How climate displacement the impacts the right to education The growing impacts of climate change and displacement on education can no longer be ignored. The increasing number of people displaced due to climate change faces unique vulnerabilities, especially in terms of access to education. This challenge is not only attributed to the often limited political and legal recognition of these displaced persons, but also stems from the global community’s lack of awareness of the diverse obstacles they encounter in seeking access to education. This global report, which concludes the “Initiative on the impact of climate change and displacement on the right to education”, aims to provide guidance to policy-makers worldwide on how to better respect, protect and fulfil the right to education of climate-displaced people. It provides an overview of climate-induced barriers to education, and global policy guidance on how to ensure the protection of the right to education of these populations. The report will inform UNESCO’s Initiative on “The evolving right to education within a lifelong learning perspective” which is investigating how the right to education, as enshrined in international normative instruments, could be strengthened to meet modern needs in our rapidly changing societies.
