Learning, Teaching, Research, Community
The right to an education is universal, liberating and fundamental. The preparation of educators for their complex and challenging duties is essential. Faculties of education in every corner of the world provide the research, expertise, practical applications and community service that are vital to education and teacher education. 

As GNDE develops as a voice for education and for Deans of Education, we will publish various summaries and statements. This page will list these publications here.
 A position paper on ‘The Essential Role of Education Faculties in Serving Students, Communities, States, Countries and the Global Community’ is being developed in conjunction with global and regional deans networks.

Here are some recommended publications that are informing our work:
  • Beyond commitments 2019: how countries implement SDG 4
  • Education Progress
  • Education at a Glance
  • For every child, every right
  • Invest in Education Early, Smartly and for All Synthesis Report
