함께 그려보는 우리의 미래 - 교육을 위한 새로운 사회계약 Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: International Commission on the Futures of Education | 유네스코 우리의 인류와 지구는 위협을 받고 있습니다. 전염병은 우리의 연약함과 상호 연결성을 증명하는 역할을 했을 뿐입니다. 이제 방향을 바꾸고 우리의 미래를 재창조하기 위해 함께 취하는 긴급 조치가 필요합니다. 국제미래교육위원회는 심오한 변화를 가져오는 교육의 힘을 인정합니다. 우리는 모든 어린이, 청소년 및 성인을 위한 양질의 교육에 대한 권리를 보장하고 지속 가능한 집합적 미래를 위한 경로로서 교육의 변혁적 잠재력을 완전히 실현하겠다는 약속을 이행해야 하는 이중 과제에 직면해 있습니다. 이를 위해서는 불의를 바로잡으면서 미래를 변화시킬 수 있는 교육을 위한 새로운 사회계약이 필요합니다.이 새로운 사회 계약은 인권에 기초해야 하고 비차별, 사회 정의, 생명 존중, 인간 존엄성 및 문화적 다양성의 원칙에 기초해야 합니다. 그것은 배려, 호혜주의, 연대의 윤리를 포함해야 합니다. 공공의 노력과 공동선으로서의 교육을 강화해야 합니다.작성 기간이 2년이고 약 100만 명이 참여하는 글로벌 협의 프로세스를 기반으로한 이 보고서는 우리가 모두를 위해 평화롭고 정의로우며 지속 가능한 미래를 건설하는 데 도움이 될 교육을 위한 새로운 사회 계약을 맺도록 전 세계의 정부, 기관, 조직 및 시민을 초대합니다.여기에 제시된 비전, 원칙 및 제안은 단지 출발점일 뿐입니다. 그것들을 번역하고 맥락화하는 것은 공동의 노력입니다. 많은 밝은 점이 이미 존재합니다. 이 보고서는 이를 캡처하고 구축하려고 시도합니다. 매뉴얼도 청사진도 아닌 중요한 대화의 시작입니다. 
Sub-Education Policy Review Report: Inclusive Education Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: UNESCO Inclusion highlights opportunities for an equal involvement of individuals with disabilities (physical, social, and emotional) when possible into typical education, but leaves accessible the probability of individual selections and possibilities for special aid and accommodations for persons who need it. This review was initiated by UNESCO to inform the ongoing discourse about inclusive education within Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, Philippine and Timur-Leste. Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) reinforces the importance of inclusive education which adheres nations to adopt the framework of action in providing inclusion and equity through education of children with perceived differences. The review contributes to the body of literature on inclusive education by synthesizing policy recommendations and evaluations and identifying contradictions and overlaps in those policies. This review draws upon UNESCO reports pertaining to inclusive education policies and initiatives. In addition, a systematic review of empirical studies on inclusive education policy (2010-2020) identified from related and major databases (Eric) is conducted. Both the UNSECO reports and empirical studies are analyzed based on the SDG4 and its targets pertaining to inclusion policy. 
Evaluation of UNESCO’s Action to Revitalize and Promote Indigenous Languages: Within the Framework of the International Year of Indigenous Languages Year of publication: 2021 Author: Claire Thomas | Lydia van de Fliert | Oliver Loode | Silvia Quattrini | Mihaela Cojocaru Corporate author: UNESCO To draw attention to the critical loss of indigenous languages and the urgent need to preserve, revitalize and promote them and to take further urgent steps at the national and international levels, in 2016 the United Nations General Assembly in its resolution 71/178 proclaimed the year beginning on 1 January 2019 the International Year of Indigenous Languages (hereafter the IYIL2019). UNESCO was invited to serve as the lead agency for the Year and the coordination role was internally assigned to the Communication and Information Sector. UNESCO requested an evaluation of its action within the IYIL2019 with a view to learning from its experience during 2019 and further strengthening its coordination and implementation role during the upcoming Decade of Indigenous Languages (2022-2032).As the lead agency for the IYIL2019, UNESCO played a key role raising awareness of not only the critical loss of indigenous languages, but also the positive value and meanings that indigenous languages provide to Indigenous Peoples and humanity at large. The evaluation found that UNESCO led the development of an ambitious and relevant Action Plan for the Year. It also succeeded in setting up an 18-member Steering Committee composed of representatives of Member States, Indigenous Peoples and the UN three-party indigenous mechanisms. UNESCO staff implemented more than 80 activities around the world, with three-quarters of these at the global level and the majority of national events in Latin America and the Caribbean region. It also maintained an interactive website, which registered more than 880 events around the world.Leading and coordinating the IYIL2019 was not without its challenges, particularly as UNESCO was asked to lead this effort within existing resources and relying on a very small core team. Its programme sectors found creative solutions for indigenous language programming, but without a budget for intersectoral activities, collaboration between sectors was limited to information sharing and activities in Africa and the Arab States were few. The evaluation also found that the Action Plan lacked a meaningful results framework and thereby did not facilitate the monitoring of the IYIL2019. Partnerships with UNESCO networks and the wider UN system were underutilized and many opportunities for future collaboration have been highlighted for the upcoming Decade. 
The World in 2030: Public Survey Report Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: UNESCO This report presents the results of the World in 2030 Survey, launched by UNESCO in May 2020 to provide a platform for people to share their views on our world’s most pressing challenges, including what specifically they are worried about, and, most importantly, what solutions they feel are mostneeded. The results of this survey present a clear and systematic framework for action, one that can enrich global reflection over the coming decade as part of a renewed push to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN 2030 Agenda.Over 15,000 respondents from all regions of the world responded to the survey, providing a clear snapshot of global per- spectives. This survey received particular participation from women and young people. A majority of respondents had a university education, and the top region from which participants hailed was Latin America and the Caribbean.Responses to the World in 2030 Survey indicate clear trends in the concerns felt by global citizens. According to survey respondents, the top challenge facing peaceful societies in the lead up to 2030 was, by far, climate change and loss of biodiversity, ranking in the top four challenges of 67% of respondents, and coming out on top for all regions and demographics. When examining this challenge, people were most concerned about increasing natural disasters and extreme weather, loss of biodiversity and its impact on people, pollution of the ocean and rising sea levels, and risk of conflict or violence. The top proposed solutions were investing in green energy and sustainable economies, teaching sustainability through education, effective international cooperation, and building trust in science and science-based decisions.The next four most highlighted global challenges were violence and conflict (44%), discrimination and inequality (43%), lack of food, water and housing (42%), and health and disease (37%). There was some limited variation in the rankings of the relative importance of these four challenges across regions and demographics. For example, women and minority group respondents both ranked discrimination and inequality as the second most important global challenge, following climate change and biodiversity loss, rather than third, while respondents from indigenous communities and from Asia and the Pacific ranked health and disease as the second most important global challenge, rather than fifth. The World in 2030 survey was an open online questionnaire held from May to September 2020. It was made available in more than 25 languages. This report also analyses results along regional, gender, age and other demographic lines, presenting a complex and valuable portrait of global sentiment on these key issues.
