World Social Report 2023 : Leaving No One Behind in an Ageing World Année de publication: 2023 Auteur institutionnel: UN. Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN. DESA) Population ageing is a defining global trend of our time. People are living longer, and more are older than ever before. Spectacular improvements in health and survival and reductions in fertility have driven this momentous shift, which has begun or is expected to begin soon in all countries and areas. This change brings both challenges and opportunities as countries strive to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In 2022, the world marked the twentieth anniversary of the adoption of the Madrid International Plan of Action on Ageing. To commemorate this landmark, the World Social Report 2023 explores the economic and social implications of the ageing of the human population. It builds on the Plan of Action’s framework for national policies to create equitable, inclusive societies for people of all ages, providing recommendations to put the rights and well-being of older persons at the centre, across the life course. Population ageing is an inevitable result of the demographic transition towards longer lives and smaller families. While the shift towards older populations is largely irreversible, collective actions and policy decisions shape its path and consequences. Postponing critical measures that allow societies to benefit from and adapt to population ageing would impose high social, economic, fiscal and health-related costs, for both current and future generations. By contrast, with appropriate foresight and planning, Governments can manage the challenges from population ageing while enhancing opportunities for all people to thrive and ensuring that no one is left behind. As elaborated in this report, population ageing needs to be widely understood as more than just a set of discrete concerns mainly for one group of people who have advanced beyond a given age. Ageing touches all parts of economies and societies, from health care and education to employment and taxation. Each stage of life can contribute to or detract from well-being at older ages.

The online book and its print edition were launched on 8 October 2020 during the Faith for Nature Global Conference, (5th - 8th October) in Skálhol, Iceland. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the faith traditions and scientific findings that underpin the understandings and reflections of world religions concerning environmental sustainability. It includes clear statements from sacred scripts and faith leaders. It underlines that protecting the Earth, restoring ecosystems, preventing pollution, and leaving behind a healthy environment for the next generations is an ethical, moral and spiritual responsibility. With more than one hundred million houses of worship around the globe, adapting green building principles is a massive demonstration of commitment to sustainability.

Learning to live together: education for conflict resolution, responsible citizenship, human rights and humanitarian norms Année de publication: 2013 Auteur: Margaret Sinclair Auteur institutionnel: Education Above All (Qatar) Education cannot offer immediate remedies to the local and global problems that we see on the news screens every day, but it can contribute to solving them over the longer term. This book examines specifically the contribution that education for learning to live together can make, even in countries where teacher training and classroom resources are limited. Many countries have diverse populations (ethnic, linguistic, religious, etc) and seek to maintain harmony among the different groups. In some countries, however, especially where economic stress or climate change have intensified arguments over resources, tensions have led to armed conflict. This brings with it all the misery of death, injury, displacement and poverty, along with disruption of education systems. In some instances education itself has been a contributory factor to the outbreak of conflict, notably through unequal education opportunities for different groups, and through biased school curricula.Civil conflict has brought untold suffering in recent years, and in a globalised world it has negative spill-over effects to neighbouring and other countries. It is vital to develop education policies and curricular reforms that can help convey values and skills for learning to live together to young people, to help lessen tensions, within and between countries.Education policy-makers can help lay the foundations for a better future by adjusting the content and process of education to reflect skills and values for human rights, humanitarian norms, peaceful resolution of conflicts, sustainable development and other issues as elements of local, national and global citizenship.Education reform is not enough, of course, to resolve the numerous problems of our times. The focus of this volume is on the contribution that can be made through aligning the content of education to the goal of learning to live together. This work will have greater impact when it takes place within education systems and policies that are consistent with human rights values and of course when other sectors besides education make their respective contributions.This book shows that transformative education for conflict resolution and peace, for local, national and global citizenship, for human rights and humanitarian values can be implemented even under difficult conditions if there is a policy commitment to do so. Authors have provided examples and lessons learned from their own experiences as eminent practitioners in the field.
Learning to live together: education for conflict resolution, responsible citizenship, human rights and humanitarian norms Année de publication: 2013 Auteur: Margaret Sinclair Auteur institutionnel: Education Above All (Qatar) L'éducation ne peut offrir des remèdes immédiats aux problèmes locaux et mondiaux que nous voyons sur les écrans d'information tous les jours, mais elle peut contribuer à les résoudre sur le long terme. Ce livre examine spécifiquement la contribution que l'éducation peut apporter pour vivre ensemble même dans les pays où la formation des enseignants et les ressources en classe sont limitées.De nombreux pays ont des populations diverses (ethniques, linguistiques, religieuses, etc.) cherchent à maintenir l'harmonie entre les différents groupes. Dans certains pays, cependant, en particulier lorsque le stress économique ou les changements climatiques ont intensifié les arguments sur les ressources, les tensions ont conduit à des conflits armés. Cela apporte avec elle toute la misère de la mort, les blessures, le déplacement et la pauvreté, ainsi que la perturbation des systèmes éducatifs. Dans certains cas, l'éducation elle-même a été un facteur contributif à l'éclatement du conflit, notamment grâce à des possibilités d'éducation inégales pour les différents groupes, et à travers les programmes scolaires biaisés.La guerre civile a causé des souffrances indicibles au cours des dernières années, et dans un monde globalisé, il a des effets négatifs de débordement vers les pays voisins et d'autres pays. Il est essentiel d'élaborer des politiques de l'éducation et la réforme des programmes qui peuvent aider à transmettre les valeurs et les compétences pour apprendre à vivre ensemble pour les jeunes, pour aider à réduire les tensions, à l'intérieur et entre les pays.Education décideurs politiques peuvent aider à jeter les bases d'un avenir meilleur en ajustant le contenu et le processus de l'éducation afin de refléter les compétences et les valeurs des droits de l'homme, des normes humanitaires, la résolution pacifique des conflits, le développement durable et d'autres questions comme éléments de local, national et citoyenneté mondiale.Réforme de l'éducation ne suffit pas, bien sûr, de résoudre les nombreux problèmes de notre temps. L'objectif de ce volume est sur la contribution qui peut être faite par le biais d'aligner le contenu de l'éducation à l'objectif d'apprendre à vivre ensemble. Ce travail aura un plus grand impact quand il a lieu au sein des systèmes et politiques d'éducation qui sont conformes aux valeurs des droits de l'homme et bien sûr, quand d'autres secteurs en dehors de l'éducation font leurs contributions respectives.Ce livre montre que l'éducation transformatrice pour la résolution des conflits et la paix, à la citoyenneté locale, nationale et mondiale, des droits de l'homme et des valeurs humanitaires peut être appliqué même dans des conditions difficiles, s'il y a un engagement politique de le faire. Les auteurs ont fourni des exemples et les enseignements tirés de leurs propres expériences en tant que praticiens éminents dans le domaine.
