A Decade of progress on education for sustainable development: reflections from the UNESCO Chairs Programme Année de publication: 2017 Auteur: Michelsen, Gerd | Wells, Peter J. Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO The UNITWIN/UNESCO Chairs Programme, launched in 1992, today forms an extensive network of inter-university cooperation involving more than 700 higher education institutions in 128 countries worldwide. Through knowledge sharing and collaborative research in the priority areas of UNESCO’s work in education, the natural and social sciences, culture, communication and information, the Chairs provide a vital contribution to the Organization’s mission. The current volume focuses on the activities undertaken by UNESCO Chairs dedicated to the field of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) within the context of the UN Decade of ESD which culminated in the UNESCO World Conference on ESD, held in AichiNagoya, Japan, 2014. The case studies included, showcase the good practices, applied research and curricula innovations pioneered by the individual UNESCO Chairs, as well as highlighting the challenges and lessons learned both for the new follow-up Global Action Programme (GAP) on ESD and the wider Education 2030 Agenda.
If you don't understand, how can you learn? Année de publication: 2016 Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO Key Messages:1. Children should be taught in a language they understand, yet as much as 40% of the global population does not have access to education in a language they speak or understand.2. Speaking a language that is not spoken in the classroom frequently holds back a child’s learning, especially for those living in poverty.3. At least six years of mother tongue instruction is needed to reduce learning gaps for minority language speakers.4. In multi-ethnic societies, imposing a dominant language through a school system has frequently been a source of grievance linked to wider issues of social and cultural inequality.5. Education policies should recognize the importance of mother tongue learning. 6. Linguistic diversity creates challenges within the education system, notably in areas of teacher recruitment, curriculum development and the provision of teaching materials.

La enseñanza del Holocausto en América Latina - Los desafios para los educadores y legisladores Année de publication: 2015 Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO The Holocaust has become a point of reference worldwide to raise awareness about violations of human rights and state violence. What is the importance of Holocaust education in regions of the world that have no direct relation to the history of the Jewish people and the crimes of Nazism, especially in Latin America? Is there a rise of relevant educational practices internationally as a result of the expansion of education about the Holocaust ? How can educators address a subject so complex and emotionally charged in changing multicultural societies ? This UNESCO publication brings together the contributions of important historians and educators around the world and frames current debates in the field, emphasizing the issues that educators in Latin America are facing and revealing the reasons why it is vital to continue teaching Holocaust history in the world today, regardless of where we live.

The International status of education about the Holocaust : A global mapping of textbooks and curricula Année de publication: 2015 Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO This publication by UNESCO and the Georg Eckert Institute documents ways in which the Holocaust is presented in secondary school level history and social studies curricula worldwide, and conceptualized and narrated in textbooks from twenty-six countries, with all continents represented. Historical understandings of the Holocaust are defined in terms of the spatial and temporal scales with which the event is portrayed, the protagonists involved, interpretative patterns (according to definitions, comprehensiveness, causes, relativization or banalization), narrative techniques and viewpoints, didactic methods, and national idiosyncrasies. The study is based on 272 currently valid curricula from 135 countries, and on 89 textbooks published in 26 countries since 2000. The aim of the study is primarily to document information in such a way that it reflects local understandings of the Holocaust, principally by recording concepts and narratives of the Holocaust found in educational media currently in use in schools. The findings show both convergence and divergence in the representations analysed. The Holocaust is subject to shared patterns of representation, which include selectivity, personalization, appropriation, screening and omission. It is also subject to narrative idiosyncrasies. One of the main trends worldwide is domestication, a process whereby countries place emphasis on the local significance of the event or appropriate them in the interests of local populations. Drawing on such national and international patterns of representation, the publication concludes by formulating recommendations for future curricula and textbook narratives about the Holocaust. These recommendations relate to such issues as the use of terms, the comprehensiveness of historical facts, the definition of causes, the combination of universal and local approaches, and the development of historical literacy.

Collection des meilleures pratiques en éducation pour une citoyenneté mondiale en Afrique centrale Année de publication: 2015 Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO This collection of best practices in human rights education in Central Africa and Ethiopia was prepared in order to respond to UNESCO’s demand to promote such initiatives and to ensure a multiplier effect considering human rights education in the region. The objective is to support the concept of UNESCO’s ‘Global Citizenship Education’ in the field of human rights education in identifying its best practices. In order to identify the best practices, UNESCO’s activities in the field of human rights education in the region were mapped out. This mapping out has shown big differences in implementing the initiatives focused on achieving global citizenship education through human rights education, particularly in primary and secondary education, as indicated in the first phase of the World Programme for human rights education. Nevertheless, various initiatives collected are either conducted/supported by UNESCO or not, in terms of three themes: citizenship education, intercultural dialogue, and the peace and security which are considered to be relevant to Africa in general and particularly to Central Africa, in order to address the main theme of global citizenship education. The selected best practices deal with the tertiary level and are in line with the second phase of the World Programme for human rights education, covering the period between 2009 and 2014 and focusing on higher and vocational education. The practices include 1) citizenship education which supports the principles set out in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and which is reiterated in the two phases of the World Programme for human rights education, 2) the intercultural dialogue which supports education for understanding and evaluating unity in diversity, and which fits well with the objectives of the UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development proclaimed by the UN General Assembly and managed by UNESCO, and 3) education for peace and security.It is obvious that many linkages exist among the three subjects mentioned above. Therefore, the examples presented in this collection can affect one or several problems. Each example is presented with the following sequence: identification, background, implementation, and results.
Education for People and Planet: Creating Sustainable Futures for All, Global Education Monitoring Report, 2016 Année de publication: 2016 Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO | Global Education Monitoring Report Team Education for People and Planet: Creating Sustainable Futures for All explores the complex relationship between education and the new 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, covering six fundamental pillars – Planet, Prosperity, People, Peace, Place and Partnerships. This report shows that education will not deliver its full potential unless participation rates increase dramatically and sustainable development guides education system reform. It also warns of the destructive impact that climate change, conflict, unsustainable consumption and the increasing gap between rich and poor have on education. A huge transformation is needed if we are to create sustainable futures for all.
