Global Education for Ontario Learners: Practical Strategies - A Summary of Research Year of publication: 2018 Author: Caroline Manion | Nadya Weber Corporate author: Ontario (Canada). Ministry of Education This summary report flows from the policy outlined in Ontario’s Strategy for K–12 International Education (OME, 2015). The report highlights current knowledge about good and/or promising practices in global education1 in order to suggest practical strategies for improved teaching, learning, and achievement. The intended audience for this piece includes all education stakeholders – community members, parents, learners, system leaders, school leaders, and educators – as active agents of change in support of an education strategy designed to integrate global perspectives, cultures, and experiences in the curriculum and learning environment. The purpose is to enable students to develop the competencies they will need to thrive as citizens in an increasingly globalized world.The discussion is organized by theme. To underline why global education is critically important for Ontario learners, we begin by outlining the significant contributions global education can make to the well-being of individuals and society as a whole. We then provide an overview synthesizing different conceptualizations of “global education” and “global citizenship education”, as well as a broad range of their overlapping sub-concepts. Next, through a review of the international literature on the subject, we present a series of challenges and opportunities for implementing global education, and list pertinent examples of good practices associated with delivering global education. A further section focuses on good practice in building system capacity and leadership for effective global education. We conclude by identifying key messages and lessons learned.

From access to empowerment: UNESCO strategy for gender equality in and through education 2019-2025 Year of publication: 2019 Corporate author: UNESCO Gender bias still permeate the entire education system in some settings and is often perpetuated rather than questionned. This includes the absence of women as leaders in textbooks, to differential expectations of boys and girls by teachers, to school policies that put pregnant girls at the door rather than respecting, protecting and fulfilling their right to education. This Strategy focuses on system-wide transformation to benefit all learners and targeted interventions to support girls’ and women’s empowerment. It offers three clear lines of action: better data to inform action for gender equality in and through education, better legal, policy and planning frameworks to advance rights, and better teaching and learning practices to empower. De l’accès à l’autonomisation: stratégie de l’UNESCO pour l’égalité des genres dans et par l’éducation 2019-2025 Year of publication: 2019 Corporate author: UNESCO Les préjugés de genres continuent d’imprégner l’ensemble du système éducatif et sont souvent perpétués au lieu d’être contestés. Ces derniers vont de l’absence de leaders féminins dans les manuels scolaires, aux attentes différentes des enseignants concernant les filles et les garçons, en passant par les politiques scolaires qui excluent les filles enceintes au lieu de les respecter, de les protéger et de garantir leur droit à l’éducation. Cette stratégie met l’accent sur la transformation à l’échelle du système au profit de tous les apprenants, et sur des interventions ciblées pour soutenir l’autonomisation des filles et des femmes. Elle propose trois thématiques prioritaires distincts : meilleures données pour éclairer l’action ; meilleurs cadres juridiques, politiques et de planification pour faire progresser les droits ; et meilleures pratiques d’enseignement et d’apprentissage pour autonomiser.
