Indigenous Peoples’ Right to Education Year of publication: 2019 Corporate author: UNESCO Among the many inequalities that indigenous peoples face, the lack of access to quality education is particularly blatant. The 2030 Agenda commitment to ‘leave no one behind’, brings new impetus to ensure that indigenous peoples’ priorities are heard. In 2017, UNESCO adopted the Policy on engaging with indigenous peoples. Concurrently, as part of its mandate, UNESCO monitors the implementation of the 1960 Convention and Recommendation against Discrimination in Education. During the Ninth Consultation on the implementation of this instrument, several Member States reported upon measures they have taken in relation to the right to education for indigenous peoples. This document (Indigenous Peoples’ Right to Education: Overview of the Measures Supporting the Right to Education for Indigenous Peoples Reported by Member States in the Context of the Ninth Consultation on the 1960 Convention and Recommendation against Discrimination in Education) compiles practical examples extracted from these reports for information sharing and advocacy.

Climate change education for sustainable development in small island developing states: report and recommendations Year of publication: 2012 Corporate author: UNESCO This report summarizes the key outcomes of a three-day meeting of around one hundred climate change education (CCE) experts, primarily from Small Island Developing States (SIDS) in the Caribbean, the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean, representing a multi-disciplinary and diverse group of stakeholders. The meeting discussed and reflected on the challenges that climate change poses to education systems in SIDS, and on the role that education must play in adaptation to climate change. It was held from 21 to 23 September 2011 in Nassau, with the support of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas, the Government of Denmark and the Government of Japan. SIDS in the Caribbean Sea, the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean are among the most vulnerable countries with regard to climate change. SIDS are already confronted with the effects of climate change, including rising sea levels and changes in weather and climate extremes such as droughts, floods and tropical cyclones/hurricanes. With current and future impacts of climate change representing a real danger to SIDS communities and livelihoods – whether based on agriculture, fisheries, forestry, tourism or trade – the need for SIDS to reduce their vulnerability to climate change by strengthening their adaptive capacity is a matter of urgency. Moving further along the path to sustainable development and achieving sustainable development objectives will depend on the ability of SIDS to strengthen this adaptive capacity. Adaptation to climate change requires individuals to be aware of potential changes in the climate and to understand the implications of changes for their lives. It requires them to assess the risks such changes hold for their identity and future, and to make informed decisions on how to adapt their livelihoods, homes and communities. Education plays an essential role in increasing the adaptative capacity of communities and nations by enabling individuals to make informed decisions. In particular, the education of girls and women has proven to have a significant impact on the capacity of communities to adapt to climate change and develop sustainably. Quality education designed for the purpose of empowering people to address climate change and live sustainably improves the adaptation capacity at the community level. This implies educational programmes that explicitly prepare communities for natural disasters. Climate change education for sustainable development (CCESD) needs also to incorporate indigenous knowledge, and promote sustainable lifestyles in which the importance of heritage is recognised as an integral part of community identity and a key asset that can help build resilience. Finally, CCESD should stress the unique cultural and natural heritage of SIDS, which plays a major role in the building of community resilience. Le changement climatique éducation pour le développement durable dans les petits États insulaires en développement: rapport et recommandations Year of publication: 2012 Corporate author: Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) Ce rapport résume les principaux résultats d'une réunion de trois jours d'une centaine éducation au changement climatique (ECC) experts, principalement des petits États insulaires en développement (PEID) dans les Caraïbes, l'océan Pacifique et l'océan Indien, ce qui représente un multi-disciplinaire et divers groupes d'intervenants. La réunion a discuté et réfléchi sur les défis que le changement climatique fait peser sur les systèmes éducatifs dans les PEID, et sur le rôle que l'éducation doit jouer dans l'adaptation au changement climatique. Il a eu lieu du 21 au 23 Septembre 2011 à Nassau, avec le soutien du Commonwealth des Bahamas, le gouvernement du Danemark et le Gouvernement du Japon. PEID dans la mer des Caraïbes, l'océan Indien et l'océan Pacifique sont parmi les pays les plus vulnérables en ce qui concerne le changement climatique. PEID sont déjà confrontés aux effets du changement climatique, y compris l'élévation du niveau de la mer et les changements météorologiques et climatiques extrêmes tels que les sécheresses, les inondations et les cyclones tropicaux / ouragans. Avec les impacts actuels et futurs des changements climatiques représentent un réel danger pour les communautés des PEID et des moyens de subsistance - qu'elle soit fondée sur l'agriculture, la pêche, la sylviculture, le tourisme ou le commerce - la nécessité pour les PEID afin de réduire leur vulnérabilité aux changements climatiques en renforçant leur capacité d'adaptation est une question d'urgence. Aller plus loin le long de la voie du développement durable et la réalisation des objectifs de développement durable dépendra de la capacité des PEID à renforcer cette capacité d'adaptation.Adaptation au changement climatique oblige les particuliers à être conscients des changements potentiels du climat et de comprendre les implications des changements pour leur vie. Il les oblige à évaluer les risques que ces changements tiennent pour leur identité et leur avenir, et de prendre des décisions éclairées sur la façon d'adapter leurs moyens de subsistance, les foyers et les communautés. L'éducation joue un rôle essentiel dans l'augmentation de la capacité d'adaptation des communautés et des nations en permettant aux individus de prendre des décisions éclairées. En particulier, l'éducation des filles et des femmes a prouvé avoir un impact significatif sur la capacité des communautés d'adaptation aux changements climatiques et à développer de manière durable. L'éducation de qualité conçu dans le but de permettre aux gens de faire face aux changements climatiques et à vivre de manière durable améliore la capacité d'adaptation au niveau communautaire. Cela implique des programmes éducatifs qui préparent explicitement les communautés aux catastrophes naturelles. Le changement climatique d’éducation pour le développement durable (CCEDD) doit également intégrer les connaissances autochtones, et de promouvoir des modes de vie durables dans laquelle l'importance du patrimoine est reconnue comme faisant partie intégrante de l'identité communautaire et un atout majeur qui peut aider à renforcer la résilience. Enfin, CECDD devrait insister sur le patrimoine culturel et naturel unique des PEID, qui joue un rôle majeur dans la construction de la résilience des communautés.
