Latin America and the Caribbean No Fear at School: Prevention of Violence Against Children in Educational Settings; Colombia Country Report 2024 Aulas en Paz Red PaPaz This report presents an overview of progress in preventing and responding to violence against children and adolescents (NNA) in educational settings in Colombia, using the framework developed by Safe to Learn. This document is part of the initiatives led by the Latin American Hub for the Prevention of Violence Against Children in Schools, in which six Latin American countries participate and which is coordinated by Aulas en Paz.  Europe and North America Brief Guidance Guide: To Combat Hate Speech on the Internet Through Human Rights Education 2016 Ellie Keen Mara Georgescu Youth Institute Council of Europe The Youth Institute has published “Bookmarks”, a guide to combat hate speech on the Internet, which aims to be a brief and useful manual for the dissemination of concepts related to human rights and freedom of expression, as well as to raise and face the challenge of defending these rights on the Internet from a young perspective. It also aims to become a practical tool for action, training and awareness-raising work, aimed at both young people themselves and trainers, to establish in a simple way the essential concepts related to online hate speech and provide mechanisms to combat it.  Global Guide to Coexistence and Restorative Practices 2020 Juan de Vicente Abad Assembly of Cooperation for Peace This guide to coexistence and restorative practices aims to join this collective movement that places coexistence as the central axis of teaching practice. Its objective is to provide teachers with very practical and useful strategies to effectively manage coexistence in the classroom. It is a proposal to address coexistence from a preventive, participatory and people-centered dimension, which conceives coexistence not only as an objective but as an object of intentional learning, which perceives conflict as an opportunity and with an inclusive and restorative perspective, betting on a restorative approach. In the guide you can find practical activities, the purpose of which is to guide educational centers to know and implement the restorative model, through a series of resources that range from the analysis of coexistence to restorative conversations to resolve daily conflicts.  Global How to Prevent Hate Speech? 2022 Adrián Vives Assembly of Cooperation for Peace The guide “How to prevent hate speech?” is aimed at teaching staff and aims to serve as a support document for working to eradicate hate speech in and through the classroom. In this guide we aim to offer some keys to working against hate speech in and through the educational field, understanding that prevention is essential to ending it. To do so, it is necessary to address it directly, as we do in the first block; but also through intercultural education that eliminates stereotypes and prejudices, as we explain in the second block; and through practical activities that we present in the last block.  Global Global Education Meeting: Fortaleza Declaration; Unlocking the Transformative Power of Education for Peaceful, Equitable and Sustainable Futures 2024 UNESCO Brazilian Ministry of Education The 2024 Global Education Meeting (GEM), held in Fortaleza, Brazil, marked a significant milestone in the global pursuit of education equity and financing, with the adoption of the powerful Fortaleza Declaration by over 650 participants including over 50 Ministers from across the globe.  Global Global Education Monitoring Report 2024/5: Leadership in Education; Lead for Learning 2024 UNESCO Global Education Monitoring Report Team Leadership matters in education. Strong leaders are needed to help institutions, systems and societies change for the better. Strong leaders work in collaboration with other actors towards the same goals. At the school level, they are the principals but also those who surround them, in the school and in the community, in positions of responsibility. At the system level, they are civil servants working as district officers, supervisors or planners. At the societal level, they are political leaders, as well as a very broad range of actors who help shape education goals, from unions and researchers to civil society and the media. Entitled Lead for learning, this report argues that, in pursuing specific goals, education leaders are more than just managers. They are change agents, who need the time, trust and support to focus on setting a vision and developing the people they serve and work with. The report calls for investment in and empowerment of school and system leaders. There should be fair hiring processes and growth opportunities that recognize the full scope of leaders’ roles. Moreover, leadership works best when it is shared, empowering others to lead as they can within their roles. There is no one leadership style that works. Different contexts, capacities and personalities mean that styles vary, and rightfully so. This, combined with the different goals that each leader is trying to achieve, means that their impact is hard to fully assess. Yet, all research points towards the critical need for strong leaders to continuously improve education quality. School leaders are second only to teachers for transforming student outcomes. Meanwhile, politicians wield huge influence in making equitable and inclusive education a national priority. Supporting this seventh Global Education Monitoring Report is a new series of country profiles on PEER, an online resource supporting policy dialogue and describing policies and regulations on school principal selection, preparation and development in the world’s education systems. Global Education and Climate Change: Learning to Act for People and Planet 2024 Global Education Monitoring Report Team Monitoring and Evaluating Climate Communication and Education Project (MECCE) University of Sakatchewan How can education lead to climate change action?Despite strong evidence on the impact of education on other development outcomes and the role it plays in developing professional capacity for sustainable development transitions, education is often absent from other sectors’ strategic, policy, planning and financing considerations. The Global Education Monitoring Report is introducing a new series to advance dialogue on the interrelationship of education with the other Sustainable Development Goals.The first paper in the series focuses on climate change. It starts by reviewing the growing impact of climate change on education before turning to the role of education in climate action. Education has a somewhat underappreciated contribution to developing professional capacities for the transition to a green economy. Formal, non-formal and informal learning are also commonly believed to be playing a critical role in motivating actions on climate change mitigation and adaptation.Yet a positive association between education attainment and unsustainable consumption levels, as well as inconclusiveness of much research on the direct impact of education on climate change adaptation and mitigation actions has in part contributed to education receiving low priority in global and national climate change agendas.This paper argues that climate change education needs to adapt to fulfil its potential. The education paradigm cannot rely solely on knowledge transfer but needs to focus on social and emotional, and action-oriented learning.Much of the research has focused on the impact of education attainment and cognitive learning. More research is therefore needed to assess other drivers through which education can influence behaviours and motivate climate change action. Such research is needed to formulate viable education reform packages that improve the curriculum, strengthen climate-readiness of schools and education systems, engage learners and prepare educators accordingly.  Africa Latin America and the Caribbean The Effects of AI on the Working Lives of Women 2022 Clementine Collett Gina Neff Livia Gouvea Gomes UNESCO Inter-American Development Bank OECD The use of AI technologies will affect women’s opportunities for work, and their position, status and treatment in the workplace. Around the globe, women in the labour force earn less than men, spend more time undertaking unpaid child- and elder-care jobs, hold fewer senior positions, participate less in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields, and tend to hold more precarious jobs overall. In harnessing AI, governments, institutions and companies must narrow gender gaps rather than perpetuate or exacerbate them. This report, by the IDB, OECD and UNESCO, outlines current knowledge of the impact that AI systems have on women’s opportunities for work, and their position, treatment and status in the workforce. It does so by exploring how AI is used within and outside the workplace, and how it could be used in the future. It looks at the potential impact of new and emerging AI technologies on the skills that employers will require, on how women look for and are hired for jobs, and on how jobs are structured through automated monitoring and oversight. The report maps the opportunities and challenges that AI presents for the working lives of women and highlights the complexities that varying national and regional contexts present for understanding the impact of AI on the work of women. The report also notes that current research does not offer a complete or definite picture of how AI impacts the working lives of women and calls for further research and analysis in this area. Global Global Toolkit on AI and the Rule of Law for the Judiciary 2023 Miriam Stankovich Ivana Feldfeber Yasmín Quiroga Marianela Ciolfi Felice Vukosi Marivate UNESCO What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? How does it work? And more importantly, how does it find its way into the judicial context? Technologies such as AI have been around for decades, but only recently have they begun to be used in a variety of justice and law enforcement settings. While AI has immense potential for the justice system, helping judges make better decisions, improving efficiency, increasing access, and helping to detect and prevent crime, there are also some important issues that justice stakeholders should consider as they prepare for a future in which AI is increasingly used in justice systems.In 2022, UNESCO launched two needs assessments. First, through UNESCO’s Artificial Intelligence Needs Assessment Survey in Africa, 90% of the 32 countries surveyed requested capacity building support for the Judiciary on AI. At the same time, a second global survey of judicial actors in 100 countries underlined the need for better understanding the use of AI in the administration of justice and its wider legal implications on societies.The “Global Toolkit on AI and the Rule of Law” for the Judiciary responds to these needs and provides judicial actors (judges, prosecutors, state attorneys, public lawyers, law universities and judicial training institutions) with the knowledge and tools necessary to understand the benefits and risks of AI in their work. The toolkit will assist judicial actors in mitigating the potential human rights risks of AI by providing guidance on the relevant international human rights laws, principles, rules and emerging jurisprudence that underpin the ethical use of AI. Global Generative AI and the Future of Education 2023 Stefania Giannini UNESCO The digital revolution has brought about significant changes in how we live, learn, and interact, with multiple waves of technological advancements. The current AI revolution represents a new and profound shift, particularly through AI's ability to simulate human language and conversation. This development challenges our understanding of language, intelligence, and the role of technology in education and society.As AI begins to generate human-like responses and knowledge, it raises fundamental questions about its impact on education, societal values, and our concept of humanity. Education systems are now grappling with how to integrate and regulate AI, which has been rapidly introduced into classrooms without sufficient oversight. The author emphasizes the importance of carefully considering the risks and ethical implications of AI, particularly in its potential to manipulate and shape knowledge systems. There is a need for balanced development, where AI technology is aligned with human values, and education remains a deeply human-centered process.UNESCO is working with countries to develop strategies for the safe use of AI in education, emphasizing the need for a cautious approach and robust regulatory frameworks. The overarching message is that while AI offers immense possibilities, it must be integrated thoughtfully to ensure it enhances education and society without undermining human agency, equity, or the foundational values of learning.
