Médias: Opération décontamination (Le Courrier de l'UNESCO no. 2; Juillet-Septembre 2017) Year of publication: 2017 Corporate author: Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) La pluralité d’opinions éclairées est une condition sine qua non du développement démocratique de nos sociétés. La qualité des informations diffusées par les médias – traditionnels et nouveaux – est déterminante dans la formation de l’opinion publique. C’est pourquoi l’UNESCO met un accent tout particulier à l’éducation aux médias et à l’information qu’elle considère comme une compétence citoyenne fondamentale du XXIe siècle.La liberté d’expression et la libre circulation des idées par les mots et l’image font partie des principes constitutifs de l’UNESCO et sont au cœur de l’Agenda 2030 pour le développement durable. L’UNESCO soutient le travail des journalistes et militants déterminés qui défendent ces libertés fondamentales, comme le journaliste Dawit Isaak, lauréat du Prix mondial de la liberté de la presse UNESCO/Guillermo Cano 2017, dont on peut découvrir le portrait dans ce numéro du Courrier de l’UNESCO.Au cours de cette dernière décennie, plus de 800 professionnels des médias ont été victimes de crimes visant à museler la libre expression. Seul un meurtre sur dix a donné lieu à un jugement. Cette impunité est inacceptable et alimente encore la spirale de la violence dans le futur. C’est pourquoi l’UNESCO s’engage de toutes ses forces pour y mettre un terme, sur tous les continents, comme une condition indispensable de sociétés pacifiques et d’autant plus robustes qu’elles sont mieux informées.À l’ère de la « post-vérité », le rôle de l’UNESCO est plus important que jamais, et ce nouveau numéro du Courrier est une belle occasion de renouveler notre engagement fondateur à soutenir l’information et la communication pour construire la paix dans l’esprit des hommes et des femmes. 
Teachers Have Their Say: Motivation, Skills and Opportunities to Teach Education for Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: منظمة الأمم المتحدة للتربية والعلم والثقافة (UNESCO) | Education International (EI) This report examines how ready teachers are to meet the promise of Sustainable Development Goal 4 on Education and Target 4.7, which calls on countries ‘to ensure that all learners acquire the knowledge and skills needed to promote sustainable development’. 
The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Education: International Evidence From the Responses to Educational Disruption Survey (REDS) Year of publication: 2022 Author: Sabine Meinck | Julian Fraillon | Rolf Strietholt Corporate author: Организация Объединенных Наций по вопросам образования, науки и культуры (UNESCO) | International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted education provision at an unprecedented scale, with education systems around the world being impacted by extended school closures and abrupt changes to normal school operations. The Responses to Educational Disruption Survey (REDS) investigated how teaching and learning were affected by the health crisis, and how education stakeholders responded to the educational disruption across and within countries. The study aimed to provide a systemic, multi-perspective, and comparative picture of the situation at the secondary education level (grade eight) in 11 countries spanning Africa, Asia, Arab region, Europe, and Latin America. While many other efforts exist that collect and provide similar information, they are mostly derived from non-representative rapid surveys and lack internationally comparable information from schools, collected in a systematic and scientific manner. The REDS International Report presents unique data, collected from countries, schools, teachers, and students for the first time, in chapters that cover several themes on which data were collected which include student and teacher well-being, students’ academic progress during the school closures, and the measures countries have implemented to keep all children learning. Initial findings provide evidence for better orienting and tailoring policy responses to crisis and provide invaluable information on what may be required to accelerate education, recover from crisis, and to strengthen the resilience of education systems in the future. 
The Journey Towards Comprehensive Sexuality Education: Global Status Report Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: UNESCO | Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) | United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) | United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) | United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) | World Health Organization (WHO) Comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) is central to children and young people’s well-being, equipping them with the knowledge and skills they need to make healthy and responsible choices in their lives. This report draws on multiple data sources to provide analysis of countries’ progress towards delivering good quality school-based CSE to all learners. 85 per cent of 155 countries surveyed have policies or laws relating to sexuality education, with considerably more countries reporting policies to mandate delivery at secondary education level than at primary level. However, the existence of policy and legal frameworks do not always equate to comprehensive content or strong implementation. Most countries report that they have some curricula in place but more detailed analysis suggests that it often lacks the breadth of topics needed to make sexuality education effective and relevant. Moreover, while efforts to scale-up teacher training are evident in a range of settings, research with teachers shows that many feel they lack confidence to deliver sexuality education. Surveys show that students frequently feel that they received information too late and would have preferred sexuality education to have started earlier in their schooling. There is evidence of opposition to CSE across a range of settings, often reflecting misinformation about the content, purpose or impact of such education. However, in many countries involvement of communities, including parents, school officials, religious leaders, media and young people themselves, has created a favourable environment for CSE. Recommendations to countries in this report include:Clear mandates and budgets to ensure implementation of policies and programmes that support the availability of good quality comprehensive sexuality education for all learners.Invest in quality curriculum reform and teacher training.Strengthen monitoring of the implementation of CSE. 
Global Education Monitoring Report 2021/2: Non-state Actors in Education; Who Chooses? Who Loses? Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: UNESCO Non-state actors’ role extends beyond provision of schooling to interventions at various education levels and influence spheres. Alongside its review of progress towards SDG 4, including emerging evidence on the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact, the 2021/2 Global Education Monitoring Report urges governments to see all institutions, students and teachers as part of a single system. Standards, information, incentives and accountability should help governments protect, respect and fulfill the right to education of all, without turning their eyes away from privilege or exploitation. Publicly funded education does not have to be publicly provided but disparity in education processes, student outcomes and teacher working conditions must be addressed. Efficiency and innovation, rather than being commercial secrets, should be diffused and practiced by all. To that end, transparency and integrity in the public education policy process need to be maintained to block vested interests. The report’s rallying call – Who chooses? Who loses? – invites policymakers to question relationships with non-state actors in terms of fundamental choices: between equity and freedom of choice; between encouraging initiative and setting standards; between groups of varying means and needs; between immediate commitments under SDG 4 and those to be progressively realized (e.g. post-secondary education); and between education and other social sectors. 全球教育监测报告摘要, 2021/2年: 教育领域的非国家行为体：谁能主动选择？谁将错失机会？ Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: 联合国教科文组织 (UNESCO) 本文件是2021/2022年全球教育检测报告的摘要，主要聚焦教育领域的非国家行为体，包括私人办学、宗教办学等力量，并探讨了与非国家行为体对教育的影响与存在问题。
