This book examines the new donor concept "education for all" which was coined at a World Bank initiated conference in 1990 in Jomtien, Thailand. The author uses her experience to examine what is going on in the education sector.
The studies contained in this volume present a sampling of policy and legislation relating to adult learning in various parts of the world. They were produced in the context of a more complete survey, under the auspices of the UNESCO Institute for Education (UIE) in cooperation with the University of Florence, which sought to identify tendencies in this field over the past few years. The international research project, under which these of Paul national studies were made, was developed under the direction Belanger, Director of UIE, and Paolo Federighi, Professor at the University of Florence. An international publication by the two project directors, due to appear at the beginning of 1997, will report on the findings of the project, which involves 26 countries. The contributions presented here reflect a broad geographical spectrum as well as a wide range of policy models. From an analysis of these studies, it is apparent that this is a field in which there has been much innovation and which encompasses markedly varying approaches in response to different national conditions.

"The global disruption to education caused by the COVD-19 pandemic is without parallel and the effects on learning are severe. The crisis brought education systems across the world to a halt, with school closures affecting more than 1.6 billion learners. While nearly every country in the world offered remote learning opportunities for students, the quality and reach of such initiatives varied greatly and were at best partial substitutes for in-person learning. Now, 21 months later, schools remain closed for millions of children and youth, and millions more are at risk of never returning to education. Evidence of the detrimental impacts of school closures on children's learning offer a harrow...
En articulant les politiques éducatives à un ensemble de questions curriculaires, les deux auteurs présentent des perspectives à l’agenda post 2015 pour l’éducation, particulièrement en Afrique. Avec, l’un et l’autre, plus de trente années de recherches et d’interventions sur les systèmes éducatifs, les deux auteurs optimisent, dans cet ouvrage, les acquis des travaux et des recherches de Louis D’Hainaut auquel ils rendent hommage. Plaçant les politiques éducatives en amont des questions curriculaires et situant le curriculum à l’interface, entre les politiques éducatives et les pratiques pédagogiques, les auteurs positionnent le curriculum comme un passeur de politiques éducatives. Cet ouvrage servira de référence à tous ceux qui travaillent à l’adaptation récurrente des systèmes éducatifs aux besoins sociétaux, sans cesse en mouvements, en matière d’éducation et de formation. Il intéressera les responsables des systèmes éducatifs et les spécialistes des questions liées aux politiques éducatives et au curriculum tout comme les chercheurs et les praticiens de l’éducation.
