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: 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.

Guidelines and Recommendations for Reorienting Teacher Education to Address Sustainability Year of publication: 2005 Corporate author: UNESCO Members of the International Network made recommendations related to reorienting teacher education to address sustainability. The recommendations are pieces of wisdom garnered through the experimentation and hard work of teacher educators.The recommendations concern ministerial and national levels to the local level. The recommendations involve curriculum, pedagogy, policy, practice, programs, rewards, research, information and computer technology, partnerships, networking, communications, etc.Members of the International Network repeatedly mentioned the urgency to act and the need for profound change. While many spoke of the enormity of the task at hand, all who participated were able to make signifi cant and positive inroads. Interested individuals operating within their own spheres of control (e.g., weaving sustainability themes into their own classroom curricula) made great headway reorienting their programs. Also, many institutions were able to develop new courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Problems arose, however, when the Network members advocated for change beyond the sphere of direct control. ESD within teacher-education institutions is currently endorsed by early-adopters. However, it will take concerted effort and resources to establish ESD in curricula, programs, practices, and policies across teacher-education institutions.
