Quality Physical Education (QPE): guidelines for policy makers Année de publication: 2015 Auteur: Nancy, McLennan | Jannine, Thompson Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO A key feature of the Post-2015 Development Agenda is sustainable development. Sustainable development starts with safe, healthy, well-educated children. Participation in quality physical education (QPE), as part of a rounded syllabus, enhances young peoples’ civic engagement, decreases violence and negative patterns of behaviour, and improves health awareness. The UNESCO QPE Policy Package is an original piece of work, which draws upon results from extensive global research (including the Worldwide Survey of School Physical Education). These guidelines, designed for global application and local adaptation, provide a means of analysing current policy through practical guidance and a ‘how-to’ approach. The materials have been developed in consultation with key partners including the European Commission, the International Council for Sport Science and Physical Education (ICSSPE), UNDP, UNICEF, UNOSDP and WHO.
The contribution of early childhood education to a sustainable society Année de publication: 2008 Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO This report originates from the international workshop, ‘The Role of Early Childhood Education for a Sustainable Society’, jointly organized in Göteborg, Sweden, by Göteborg University, Chalmers University of Technology and the City of Göteborg, from 2 to 4 May 2007. It was attended by thirty-five participants from sixteen different countries (see ‘List of Participants’). The workshop was a follow-up to the international conference on education for sustainable development, ‘Learning to Change Our World’, held in May 2004, in Göteborg. It was one of four preparatory workshops leading to another international conference on education for sustainable development, to be organized in 2008 or 2009, in the same city. The aim of the four workshops is to discuss promoters and barriers related to learning for sustainability, and to propose recommendations for the upcoming international conference. The present workshop was conceived for the following reasons. First, our societies urgently require new kinds of education that can help prevent further degradation of our planet, and that foster caring and responsible citizens genuinely concerned with and capable of contributing to a just and peaceful world. Second, these new kinds of education must be available to all – not only a handful of people – and take place in various settings, including families and communities. Third, they must begin in early childhood, as the values, attitudes, behaviours and skills acquired in this period may have a long-lasting impact in later life. Thus, early childhood education clearly has an important place in the efforts to bring about sustainable development.
Water for Women, Women for Water: UNESCO's Chairs on Water and Gender Année de publication: 2014 Auteur institutionnel: منظمة الأمم المتحدة للتربية والعلم والثقافة (UNESCO) The access to sufficient, safe and affordable water is a basic human right. It calls for governments, institutions, corporations and public and private organizations involved in the water sector to eliminate various forms of discrimination in the access, management and decision‐making processes involving water resources. Within the framework of the UNITWIN/UNESCO Chairs Programme, UNESCO has established five Chairs seeking to promote the engagement of women in sustainable development and water resource management. These Chairs integrate the UNESCO Water Family, consisting of the International Hydrological Programme (IHP), water‐related Centers’, the UNESCO‐IHE Institute for Water Education, the World Water Assessment Programme (WWAP), and a total of 35 UNESCO Chairs and UNITWIN Networks.Located in Brazil, Côte d’Ivoire, Morocco, Togo and the Dominican Republic, the Chairs are based in institutions of research and higher education, working actively to develop human resources, build solutions, and share scientific and practical knowledge. They work in partnership with other academic institutions, as well as public and private organizations. They also pave the way for the research and higher education communities to join forces with UNESCO in an effort to achieve internationally agreed Development Goals and targets. With a high appreciation for the Chairs’ great potential for impact, IHP has strongly encouraged their projects and initiatives, as well their involvement in other focal areas of the Eighth Phase of IHP, in order to strengthen water security, enhance tertiary and technical water education and respond to the needs of communities, with a special focus on women’s needs. With their inception in 2006, the UNESCO Chairs on Water and Gender have built a remarkable combination of knowledge and experience in their area of expertise. Through their actions, the Chairs have successfully fostered cooperation and exchange of information among different institutions of higher education; conducted research and training activities on gender‐related issues, water and natural sciences; established networks between professionals, governmental, non‐governmental and private organizations; created new approaches to deal with the water‐related needs of local communities and succeeded in increasing participation, leadership and the role of women in the water sector.As a general goal, the Chairs strive to enhance women’s capacities through motivation, engagement, development of skills and education. They have been active in organizing learning courses, training sessions, workshops, conferences and a diverse range of research and community projects. The following pages present a detailed overview of the five Chairs and their goals, activities, and initiatives.
