YouthXchange Training Kit on Responsible Consumption for Africa Year of publication: 2017 Author: Carme Martinez-Roca | Victoria Thoresen Corporate author: UNESCO | United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Young people from all walks of life play a critical role in delivering the 17 goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, particularly in areas like education, lifestyle and responsible consumption and production. As the consumers of today and decision-makers of tomorrow, they define the demand for goods and services and have the power to drive economic prosperity, environmental sustainability and social equality.This approach underpins the YouthXchange Initiative, which contributes to the Global Action Programme on Education for Sustainable Development and aligns with the goals of the 2030 Agenda. The initiative promotes equitable, informed and efficient consumption, while the training kit supports that effort with clear, reliable and compelling information. As well as outlining the relationship between the environment, the economy and social justice, the kit uses case studies to showcase the available opportunities and encourage readers to take shared responsibility for their future, starting with their own attitudes and behaviours.
More than Welcome: Intercultural Integration of Migrants in and Through Higher Education Year of publication: 2026 Author: Darla K. Deardorff | Raffaela Iuliano Corporate author: UNESCO As global displacement reaches unprecedented levels—with 123.2 million people uprooted by conflict, environmental disasters, and economic instability (UNHCR, 2025)—there is an urgent need to rethink approach integration. Migration should be embraced as an opportunity for human and cultural development, social cohesion, and economic growth. To realise this, societies must transition from outdated integration models to a new paradigm of intercultural integration—a multidirectional process engaging all community members.More than Welcome offers a framework for intercultural integration, founded on five principles with intercultural competence at its core. It highlights the unique role of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in fostering mutual respect, understanding, and collaboration. By actively addressing xenophobia and cultural discrimination, HEIs can become catalytic spaces to help migrants reach their full potential in diverse societies.Through research and practical examples, the publication provides actionable strategies for policy-makers to create a higher education sector that not only educates but also cultivates active, intercultural citizens. By embracing this framework, we can build more inclusive societies and unlock the full potential of migration for the benefit of all.
Addressing Antisemitism Through Education: A Survey of Teachers’ Knowledge and Understanding Year of publication: 2026 Corporate author: UNESCO | OSCE. Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) As antisemitism continues to pose an increasing threat to the security of Jewish communities and individuals worldwide, education systems have a moral imperative to address it in all its forms. Teachers are the first line of defence to prevent the spread of hatred. Listening to their experiences and understanding their needs is a first step towards equipping them with the right tools to combat this phenomenon.This unprecedented study is the first European survey of teachers on the topic of antisemitism. It includes data surveyed from 2,030 educators across the European Union, to examine their knowledge and understanding of antisemitism and explore their preparedness to address it in the classroom. Highlighting the prevalence of antisemitism in school environments, the survey outlines key areas where educational systems can support teachers, including: understanding the challenges they face, enhancing high-quality training opportunities, and developing clear policies and guidance on how to respond to antisemitic incidents.Above all, the survey provides insights into the potential for research-informed, high quality professional development courses to meaningfully support teachers in recognising and combatting antisemitism.
