Investir dans la diversité culturelle et le dialogue interculturel: rapport mondial de l'UNESCO Year of publication: 2009 Corporate author: Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) Au carrefour de la réflexion intellectuelle, scientifique et politique, ce second Rapport mondial vise à faire le point sur tout ce qui se dit, se pense et se fait au nom de la diversité culturelle, et à identifier les conditions nécessaires pour faire de la diversité un atout et non une menace, une source de renouveau pour les politiques publiques au service du développement, de la cohésion sociale et de la paix.Ce Rapport mondial vise à dresser un état des lieux des enjeux de la diversité culturelle, à examiner un certain nombre d’idées reçues et à proposer des recommandations opérationnelles dans un certain nombre de domaines transversaux tels que les identités et le dialogue, l’avenir des langues et l’éducation interculturelle, le pluralisme des médias et des industries culturelles, le monde de l’entreprise, les savoirs locaux, la biodiversité, le développement durable, la gouvernance et les droits de l’homme. Invertir en la diversidad cultural y el diálogo intercultural: informe mundial de la UNESCO Year of publication: 2009 Corporate author: Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura (UNESCO) La diversidad cultural ha comenzado a suscitar un interés fundamental al iniciarse el nuevo siglo. Sin embargo, los significados que se le asignan a esta expresión "comodín" son tan variados como cambiantes. Algunos consideran que la diversidad cultural es intrínsecamente positiva, en la medida en que se refiere a un intercambio de la riqueza inherente a cada cultura del mundo y, por ende, a los vínculos que nos unen en los procesos de diálogo e intercambio. Para otros, las diferencias culturales son la causa de que perdamos de vista lo que tenemos en común en cuanto seres humanos y, por lo tanto, constituyen la raíz de numerosos conflictos.Este segundo diagnóstico resulta hoy tanto más digno de crédito cuanto que la mundialización ha aumentado los puntos de interacción y fricción entre las culturas, originando tensiones, repliegues y reivindicaciones en relación con la identidad, en particular de índole religiosa, que se convierten en fuentes potenciales de conflicto. Por consiguiente, el desafío fundamental consistiría en proponer una perspectiva coherente de la diversidad cultural y, por su conducto, aclarar cómo, lejos de ser una amenaza, puede contribuir a las medidas que adopte la comunidad internacional. Éste es el objetivo esencial del presente informe. 
[Summary] Education for People and Planet: Creating sustainable Futures for All, Global Education Monitoring Report, 2016; Summary Year of publication: 2016 Corporate author: UNESCO Education for People and Planet: Creating Sustainable Futures for All explores the complex relationship between education and the new 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, covering six fundamental pillars – Planet, Prosperity, People, Peace, Place and Partnerships. This report shows that education will not deliver its full potential unless participation rates increase dramatically and sustainable development guides education system reform. It also warns of the destructive impact that climate change, conflict, unsustainable consumption and the increasing gap between rich and poor have on education. A huge transformation is needed if we are to create sustainable futures for all.

[요약본] 교육의 책무성: 우리의 공약을 어떻게 이행할 것인가; 세계 교육 현황 보고서 2017/8 Year of publication: 2017 Corporate author: 유네스코 두 번째로 발간되는 세계 교육 현황 보고서는 유엔 지속가능발전목표의 교육 목표를 향한 전 세계적 이행 현황에 대한 최신 증거를 제시합니다.여전히 수억 명의 사람들이 학교에 다니지 못하고, 많은 이들이 학교에서 최소한의 기술을 습득하지 못하고 있습니다. 이것은 현 교육 시스템이 글로벌 목표를 달성하기 위한 올바른 방향으로 나아가지 못하고 있음을 나타냅니다. 현재 소외 계층이 이러한 여파를 가장 크게 받고 있지만, 정책 입안자가 이들의 필요에 충분히 주의를 기울인다면 이들이 가장 큰 혜택을 받을 수도 있습니다. 이러한 과제에 직면해 있고 예산 부족 및 돈에 합당한 결과 지향적 가치의 강조에 어려움을 겪고 있는 국가들은 해결책을 모색하고 있습니다. 대부분의 경우 책무성 증진이 최우선 해결책으로 명시되고 있습니다.2017/8 세계 교육 현황 보고서 요약본은 교육의 책무성에 대한 모든 접근법을 보여 줍니다. 이 보고서는 책무성에 대한 개념이 낯선 국가 및 교육에 대한 권리 침해가 문제시 되지 않는 국가에서부터 책무성이 그 자체로 포괄적이고 공평한 양질의 교육과 평생 학습을 위한 수단이 아닌 목적이 된 국가까지를 포괄합니다.본 보고서는 교육이 공동의 책임이라는 점을 강조합니다. 교육에 대한 기본적인 책임은 정부에 있지만, 학교, 교사, 학부모, 학생, 국제기구, 민간 부문 제공자, 시민사회 및 미디어 등 모든 주체는 교육제도 향상을 위한 역할을 지닙니다. 본 보고서는 투명성과 정보 가용성의 중요성을 강조하지만 자료 사용 방법에 대한 주의를 촉구합니다. 협소하게 정의된 결과와 처벌적 제재에 대한 불균형적 집중은 책무성 시스템을 회피하게 만드는 경우를 만듭니다. 여러 책무성 도구들이 존재하는 시대에 본 보고서는 어떠한 도구가 효과가 있고 그렇지 않은지에 대한 분명한 증거를 제시하고 있습니다. 
Sandwatch: adapting to climate change and educating for sustainable development Year of publication: 2010 Author: Gillian Cambers | Paul Diamond Corporate author: UNESCO Sandwatch provides a framework for children, youth and adults, with the help of teachers and local communities, to work together to critically evaluate the problems and conflicts facing their beach environments, and to develop sustainable approaches to address these issues. It also helps beaches become more resilient to climate change. The preliminary chapters of this publication focus on how to get started with Sandwatch activities and examine ways to address climate change impacts. The principle aim of this publication is to document the Sandwatch methodology: monitoring, analysing, sharing and taking action. An activities-orientated approach is used to provide step-by-step instructions to cover monitoring methods and data analysis, including observation and recording, erosion and accretion, beach composition, human activities, beach debris, water quality, waves, longshore currents, plants and animals. The activities are related to (a) sustainable development issues, including: beach ownership, mining beaches for construction material, conflict resolution between different beach users, pollution, conservation of endangered species, and (b) climate change adaptation issues: sea level rise, rising temperatures, ocean acidification and increased extreme events. Ways to share findings and create a Sandwatch network are detailed including methods such as the use of local media, websites, social networking and video production. Finally, ways are discussed to design, plan and implement a Sandwatch project to fulfill one or all of the following criteria: (a) addressing a particular beach-related issue, (b) enhancing the beach, and (c) promoting climate change adaptation. Sandwatch stands as an example of Education for Sustainable Development in action, and is being targeted as one of several flagship projects for the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005–2014). As the world confronts the growing threat of climate change, Sandwatch presents an opportunity to help people and ecosystems respond to present and future changes in a practical manner. Beaches are among the ecosystems most at risk from climate change as they face rising sea levels and increased more intense storms. By contributing to ecosystem health and resilience, Sandwatch can help people from all walks of life learn about climate change and how their actions can contribute to the adaptation process. Fostering peaceful co-existence through analysis and revision of history curricula and textbooks in Southeast Europe: preliminary stocktaking report Year of publication: 2006 Author: Jean Damascène Gasanabo | Jade Maître Corporate author: UNESCO To accomplish this aim, the study reviews policies and processes for developing history curricula and producing history textbooks in ten participating countries: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Romania, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia and The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM). The resulting report has been compiled for the dual purpose of (1) presenting a composite picture of the educational policies and practices in these countries with regard to history teaching and textbook production, distribution and use; (2) laying the groundwork for the development of national and/or sub-regional initiatives aimed at improving the processes currently in place. Favoriser la coexistence pacifique par l'analyse et la révision des programmes et manuels d'histoire en Europe du Sud-Est: rapport préliminaire d'inventaire Year of publication: 2006 Author: Jean Damascène Gasanabo | Jade Maître Corporate author: UNESCO Pour atteindre cet objectif, l'étude examine les politiques et les processus d'élaboration des programmes d'histoire et de la production de manuels d'histoire dans dix pays participants: Albanie, Bosnie-Herzégovine, Bulgarie, Croatie, Grèce, Roumanie, Monténégro, Serbie, Slovénie et l'ancienne République yougoslave de Macédoine (ARYM). Le rapport qui en résulte a été compilé dans le double but de (1) présentant une image composite des politiques et pratiques éducatives dans ces pays en ce qui concerne l'enseignement de l'histoire et de la production de manuels scolaires, la distribution et l'utilisation; (2) jeter les bases pour le développement d'initiatives nationales et / ou sous-régionaux visant à améliorer les processus actuellement en place. 
UNESCO strategy for the second half of the United Nations decade of education for sustainable development Year of publication: 2010 Corporate author: UNESCO The UNESCO Strategy for the Second Half of the United Nations (UN) Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (DESD) draws on the findings and lessons learnt from the first phase of the DESD monitoring and evaluation (M&E) process (as reflected in the 2009 DESD M&E report Learning for a Sustainable World: Review of Contexts and Structures for Education for Sustainable Development. It also builds on the UNESCO World Conference on ESD and the Bonn Declaration as well as on the outcomes of other key international ESD meetings. The Bonn Declaration gives particular emphasis to the importance of education for the global development agenda and underlines the essential contribution of ESD to shaping the purpose, content and quality of all education. The UNESCO strategy will be implemented in line with the International Implementation Scheme (IIS), which, along with the Bonn Declaration, will provide the global strategic framework for UNESCO and its DESD partners during the second half of the Decade. The Strategy takes into account key DESD regional challenges and opportunities. It is also shaped by the shared vision of education emerging from the four 2008-2009 UNESCO international education conferences: one of education systems that encourage equity and inclusion, quality learning, flexibility and innovation. While UNESCO puts highest emphasis on achieving Education for All (EFA), the Organization’s actions in education extend beyond this, to pay explicit attention to inclusion, social cohesion and social justice, to lifelong learning and to the crucial role of higher education and research. The overall goal of the UNESCO Strategy for the Second Half of the DESD is to support Member States and other stakeholders in addressing global sustainable development challenges at regional, national and global level through ESD, thus addressing the challenges of learning for bringing about a more sustainable world. 
Teaching respect for all: implementation guide Year of publication: 2014 Corporate author: UNESCO Teaching Respect for All is a joint UNESCO-United States of America-Brazil project launched in January 2012 to counteract discrimination both in and through education. Acknowledging that discrimination is on the rise worldwide, Teaching Respect for All promotes an educational response to counter discrimination and violence through strengthening the foundations of mutual tolerance and cultivating respect for all people, regardless of colour, gender, class, sexual orientation, national, ethnic, or religious orientation/identity. Teaching Respect for All has chosen to focus efforts on the formal and informal classroom, targeting learners of 8-16 years old, and aims to build curiosity, openness, critical thinking and understanding among youth learners, thus equipping them with the awareness, knowledge, and skills to cultivate respect and stop discrimination on all levels. The project is founded on the universal values and core principles of human rights, while acknowledging each country has its own history and mechanism for addressing the issue of discrimination in education.
