Global Citizenship Education: How Much Do We Care? Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: European confederation of Relief and Development NGOs (CONCORD) While Global Citizenship Education is recognised by many as a powerful tool to resolve the current global challenges our world is facing, the level of investment by national governments remains limited. Why is that? To answer this situation, CONCORD launches its new report “Global Citizenship Education – How much do we care?“. Based on a research across all EU Member States (+ Norway), this publication reveals the level of funding dedicated to Global Citizenship Education (GCE) in Europe between 2011 and 2015. Analysing the quantitative sources of investments by national governments as well as the qualitative narrative around GCE (How is GCE named? What is its framework of action?), this report digs into the complex world of GCE and provides a full picture of its current states in Europe. The report is composed of 2 parts:– a general overview and analysis– a comparative part made of an analysis per country of all EU member states (+ Norway), including interesting details on GCE definitions, concepts, funding trends.Strong of these analysis, the report draws conclusions and recommendations on where possible improvements at policy and advocacy level can be made.
Éducation à la Citoyenneté Mondiale en Europe: Combien compte-t-elle pour nous? Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: European confederation of Relief and Development NGOs (CONCORD) Cette étude analyse le niveau des financements de l’éducation à la citoyenneté mondiale par les gouvernements nationaux à travers les États membres de l’UE, ainsi que la Norvège, entre 2011 et 2015. Le postulat de l’idée transparaît dans son intitulé « combien compte-telle pour nous ». En effet, un des indicateurs déterminants de l’engagement d’un pays en faveur d’une solidarité mondiale et d’une sensibilisation de ses propres citoyens aux interdépendances mondiales est le montant de financements publics dédiés à l’Education à la Citoyenneté Mondiale (mentionnée ci-après ECM). Le montant des fonds nationaux dédiés à l’ECM est directement lié à d’autres facteurs aux niveaux national et international, qui conditionnent l’ampleur du soutien et des engagements des gouvernements en faveur de l’ECM. Ainsi, au-delà de l’analyse des données liées aux financements, cette étude vise à explorer les contextes dans lesquels opèrent les gouvernements et les ONG, afin de brosser un tableau complet de l’état de l’ECM en Europe.
A metro map illustrated in the 17 sustainable development goals Year of publication: 2018 Author: Rembert Jonckheere Corporate author: ASPnet Flanders (Belgium) “Tackling one SDG… is tackling all of them!”This metro map is a complex illustration of the 17 sustainable development goals. With different kinds of topics as service stations and the SDG’s connecting them, it shows how the goals can relate to each other, and thus it emphasises their holistic nature. I do not pretend to be completely exhaustive or correct. Probably one can add more links and topics, but this map could be helpful in education or in other institutions as a source of inspiration to start up projects within the framework of the sustainable development goals.
Education Reform in Pakistan Year of publication: 2014 Corporate author: International Crisis Group In April 2010, the eighteenth constitutional amendment committed Pakistan to free and compulsory education for all children between the ages of five and sixteen. Yet millions are still out of school, and the education system remains alarmingly impoverished. The madrasa (religious school) sector flourishes, with no meaningful efforts made to regulate the seminaries, many of which propagate religious and sectarian hatred. Militant violence and natural disasters have exacerbated the dismal state of education. The public education system needs to foster a tolerant citizenry, capable of competing in the labour market and supportive of democratic norms within the country and peace with the outside world.
Education Reform in Pakistan Year of publication: 2014 Corporate author: International Crisis Group En Avril 2010, le Pakistan s’est engagé, l'amendement constitutionnel XVIII, à mettre en place une éducation gratuite et obligatoire pour tous les enfants âgés de cinq à seize ans. Pourtant, des millions d’enfants ne sont encore à l'école et le système éducatif s’appauvrit d’une façon alarmante. Le secteur de la madrasa (école religieuse) fleurit, sans que des efforts significatifs soient déployés pour réglementer les séminaires, qui propagent souvent la haine religieuse et le sectarisme. La violence militante et les catastrophes naturelles ont aggravé l'état lamentable de l'éducation. Le système public de l'éducation doit favoriser une citoyenneté tolérante, compétitive sur le marché du travail et apportant son soutien aux normes démocratiques dans le pays et à la paix avec le monde extérieur.
