From Rhetoric to Action: Delivering Equality & Inclusion Year of publication: 2021 Author: Faiza Shaheen | Alexander Bossakov | Avner Cohen | Amanda Lenhardt | Nendirmwa Noel | Paula Sevilla Núñez | Paul von Chamier Corporate author: Pathfinders for Peaceful, Just and Inclusive Societies, NYU. Center on International Cooperation This flagship report of the Pathfinders Grand Challenge on Inequality and Exclusion is about the solutions that will deliver equality and inclusion.The report constructs a bridge between the rhetoric of “build back better” and action: a bridge between promise and progress. It underlines the need for renewed social contracts between citizens, civil society, the private sector, and governments, as well as between high and low- and middle-income countries. These social contracts must be built to serve future generations, to guard against climate breakdown and pandemics while delivering respect, opportunity, and justice for all.This report should serve as a practical handbook for policymakers and influencers; as a source of possibility for the public; and, as a call to all political leaders to act.

Effective and Equitable Educational Recovery: 10 Principles Year of publication: 2021 Corporate author: Education International (EI) | Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the frequent closure of school buildings in most countries in the world and has interrupted the school attendance of at least 1.2 billion students in 2020 and 2021. Although many education systems have been able to adapt in varying degrees, the pandemic has shown that countries’ current learning infrastructures are highly vulnerable to external shocks.While schools have shown great resilience in trying to compensate for the crisis, they need to be better prepared for similar challenges. Education systems must ensure the continuity of learning which must be the centrepiece of all considerations.Acknowledging the disruption that the health crisis has brought about and its likely impact on educational quality and equity, the OECD Secretariat and Education International have, based on their respective work during the pandemic, jointly established 10 principles that can facilitate the collaboration of education authorities, the teaching profession and their organisations to navigate the crisis effectively and reshape education systems after the pandemic to reach greater levels of educational quality and equity.Education systems around the world have been facing similar challenges but generated diverse approaches and experiences. The intention is also for these principles to contribute to a framework for international cooperation and peer learning.

L'éducation au service du développement: La vision de la Banque mondiale, de l'OCDE et de l'UNESCO (L’Education en débats: analyse comparée; no. 8) Year of publication: 2016 Author: Thibaut Lauwerier Corporate author: Université de Genève Dans ce présent article, nous nous intéressons aux liens entre éducation et développement du point de vue de la Banque mondiale, l’OCDE et l’UNESCO, organisations internationales majeures dans le secteur éducatif au niveau mondial. Après avoir présenté le contexte de la recherche, à savoir les caractéristiques majeures des trois organisations étudiées et la méthodologie utilisée, nous montrons comment le concept du développement est perçu par ces institutions. Ensuite, nous traitons des implications de ces visions du développement pour l’éducation. En conclusion, tout en analysant les récentes évolutions des discours des organisations internationales, nous discutons de la nécessité d’aller au-delà d’une vision étriquée du développement et donc de l’éducation.
