Global Educator Organizations Collaborate to Rebuild, Renew & Transform School Systems
There are several global initiatives being led by UN agencies and others to rebuild after the Covid 19 pandemic, to renew commitments to achieving the targets under Goal 4, and other goals of the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and to transform school systems for 2050 and beyond. This page maintains an updated list & descriptions of some of these initiatives. 

The global organizations representing teachers and other educators working in schools have developed a draft joint statement as well as an accompanying position paper and summary list of the elements of school and other systems that should be addressed in any transformation/systems change. The joint statement and accompanying materials provide advice on some of the principles, processes and other aspects that countries, states and provinces should consider as they chart their course towards inclusive, equitable, excellent and sustainable school systems. (GNDE has acted as the convenor for these discussions)

Go directly to the joint statement,  position paper. or summary list of system elements that should be addressed if the changes to the systems are to be coherent and sustainable. This statement has been prepared by these organizations representing teachers, principals, school district administrators, senior school leaders, counselors and school psychologists.
