Despite declining poverty and narrowing gender gaps in education, not a single indicator under the global gender equality Goal has been achieved. The report stresses the high cost of not investing in women's rights and champions radical action to accelerate the pace of change. 
Rethinking Global Citizenship Education: From Asia-Pacific Perspectives Año de publicación: 2024 Autor: Sicong Chen | Suzanne S. Choo | Thippapan Chuosavasdi | Aigul Kulnazarova | Mousumi Mukherjee | Tania Saeed | Tanya Wendt Samu | Kyujoo Seol | Jun Teng Autor corporativo: APCEIU Rethinking Global Citizenship Education from Asia-Pacific Perspectives aims to rethink and reinterpret global citizenship and GCED in light of the cultural and historical contexts and political and economic conditions of the Asia-Pacific region. The edited volume offers an in-depth exploration of global citizenship and GCED through the contributions of nine scholars who examine the subject from a range of cultural, historical, and theoretical perspectives. Each chapter brings to light the complexities involved in fostering global citizenship in an era defined by both growing interconnectedness and intensifying political, social, and economic divides.This book is structured into three parts. The first part examines how various philosophical traditions from the Asia-Pacific region, such as Confucian cosmopolitanism, Tagore’s mindset, Pacific indigenous wisdom, and the Tianxia system, can inform and enrich the concept of GCED. The second part delves into the foundational ideas of global citizenship embedded within Asian religious and spiritual traditions, including Buddhist and Sufi perspectives. The third part provides case studies from Central and East Asia, highlighting the practical application of GCED in local contexts such as Kazakhstan, China, Japan, and South Korea. Together, these chapters offer a comprehensive analysis of the evolving challenges, opportunities, and innovations within GCED from Asia-Pacific viewpoints, emphasising the need for education systems to adapt and respond to the multifaceted nature of global citizenship.

Teaching about the Holocaust in English Secondary Schools : An empirical study of national trends, perspectives and practice Año de publicación: 2009 Autor: Alice Pettigrew | Stuart Foster | Jonathan Howson | Paul Salmons | Ruth Anne Lenga | Kay Andrews The aims were to examine when, where, how and why the Holocaust is taught in state-maintained secondary schools in England, and to inform the design and delivery of a continuing professional development (CPD) programme for teachers who teach about the Holocaust. A two-phase mixed methodology was employed. This comprised an online survey which was completed by 2,108 respondents and follow-up interviews with 68 teachers in 24 different schools throughout England. The research reveals that teachers adopt a diverse set of approaches to this challenging and complex subject. In the report, teachers’ perceptions, perspectives and practice are presented and a range of challenges and issues encountered by teachers across the country are explicitly identified. The research shows that, although most teachers believe that it is important to teach about the Holocaust, very few have received specialist professional development in this area. It also shows that many teachers find it a difficult and complicated subject to teach, and that they both want and need support to better equip them to teach about the Holocaust effectively.(By the author) 
Supporting women participation in higher education in Eastern Africa: building sustainable and equitable higher education systems in Kenya, South Sudan and Uganda Año de publicación: 2023 Autor: Winnie V. Mitullah | Sibrino Forojalla | Benon Basheka | Saidou Sireh Jallow | Endris Adem Awol | Scheherazade Feddal | Daniele Vieira do Nascimento Autor corporativo: UNESCO International Institute for Higher Education in Latin America and the Caribbean (IESALC) | UNESCO Nairobi <Executive Summary>Some takeaways from the Report:Policy frameworks and various legislations have enhanced the implementation of programs aimed at improving women’s education from primary school to university level. At the Higher Education (HE) level, some progress has been made, but the institutions are lagging behind in having gender parity, more so in top leadership positions. Men dominate leadership positions. At lower education levels, progress is hampered by socio-economic and cultural gender inequities, and limited resources. Socio-cultural practices such as Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and early marriages have also had a negative effect on women’s advancement to HE.There are multiple factors that hinder women’s participation in HE and in reaching leadership positions. These include fewer women having PhD, maternal household engagement, limited time for participation in research and related activities that are a requirement for upward mobility as well as lack of child care and women-friendly facilities within universities. Ongoing mainstreaming of gender in HE is improving the situation, albeit minimal. More effort is needed to increase the number of women in HE. In addition, there is limited administrative commitment on the part of the universities to address gender inequality in leadership positions.Overall, HE institutions have not fully exploited opportunities that exist for gender advancement in HE, including potential partnerships for supporting the advancement of women. There is need for effective governance to achieve gender equality and collaboration between HE institutions, and development partners through public-private partnerships. Such partnerships have the potential for making resources available and for funding opportunities to enhance the support to women students, in particular those undertaking STEM courses which require more time for study.In Kenya, higher education has evolved over time from the technical and commercial institute in Nairobi – the Royal Technical College of East Africa – established in 1951 to offer technical courses within the East Africa region. The college was transformed to Royal Technical College in 1961, and later to the University of Nairobi in 1970. From this initial one university, Kenya currently has 32 chartered public universities, 9 public university constituent colleges, 21 chartered private universities and 3 private university constituent colleges.In South Sudan, at its commencement, missionary education did not provide for girls. When schools re-opened in August 1956, the Sudanese government authorities maintained the closure of the girls’ schools, irrespective of whether government or missionary, for the following four to five years. The impact has been the severe retardation of girls’ education for almost a generation. Tradition and tribal customs regarding gender equity are still very strong and dominant in everyday life. Consequently, traditional male stereotypes also dominate within almost all higher education institutions, including the Ministry of Higher Education (MoHEST) itself. This research is in fact the first time an effort is being made to investigate the participation of women in HE and in leadership positions in universities and other tertiary institutions. This explains the very limited response to the questions sent out to the institutions outside Juba. Today, however, a good start has been made in advancing girls’ education in general.In Uganda, under similar circumstances, women do not have good access to higher level jobs, positions, voice and wealth like men. The low representation of women in leadership positions in higher education institutions in the country can be traced back to the late start in women’s enrollment in modern schooling due to a number of factors.

Active citizenship and late-life learning in the community Año de publicación: 2013 Autor: Carmel Borg This paper problematises dominant notions of active citizenship in later life and provides a framework for an alternative view of active citizenship. It also illustrates how adult educators can facilitate learning processes where late-life learners, reflect on the impact of the neoliberal value system and on the consequences of its hegemonic practices on personal and community life, before engaging in transformative action.
