Education in a Post-COVID World: Additional Considerations (In-Progress Reflection; No.43, 2021) Year of publication: 2021 Author: Renato Opertti Corporate author: UNESCO International Bureau of Education (IBE) This discussion document analyses some implications of the ideas proposed in the seminal UNESCO document “Education in a post-COVID world: Nine ideas for public action” (2020). Based on the work of the International Commission on the Futures of Education, the documents’ contributors included prominent figures with a wide range of professional and policy experience who hail from various regions of the world. The set of nine interconnected ideas illuminates the way forward toward the transformation of education and education systems and a reimagined future seen through a progressive lens. On one hand, it reaffirms basic principles, understandings, and commitments with regard to education as a global common good and universal human right; it also articulates the need to both reinvent multilateralism for a new global order and, crucially, to mobilize ideas and funding for transforming education. On the other hand, the document advocates for a comprehensive educational agenda, including the following critical issues: (i) visualizing educators as decision-makers in educational systems; (ii) appreciating students as active actors with rights; (iii) recognizing the value and specificity of the school space; (iv) addressing the dilemmas around technology’s ability to serve as an equalizer of opportunities; and (v) revisiting educational content for the sustainability of younger generations.

Toward a More Inclusive Post-COVID Recovery: A Tool to Further the Caribbean Policy Agenda Year of publication: 2022 Author: Anna Kasafi Perkins | Stacy Richards-Kennedy | Don Marshall | R. Clive Landis Corporate author: UNESCO Kingston | University of the West Indies The Caribbean is a grouping of islands and low-lying coastal countries of sovereign nations and dependent territories that share a history of colonialism and coloniality,1 which has shaped and continues to shape their “complex mix of political and administrative structures”. Indeed, Caribbean nations experience a “paradoxical, type of political sovereignty and experience of development”. All Caribbean nations have been classified by the United Nations as Small Island Developing States (SIDS), taking account of “the peculiar social, economic and environmental vulnerabilities” they experience. Caribbean SIDS are highly indebted and vulnerable to climate change, hurricanes and other natural hazards. At the same time, theirs is a paradoxical existence as their vulnerabilities place them alongside least developed countries, in spite of some being designated by the World Bank as high or middle-income countries. Such classification limits access to the international financing needed towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
