This publication presents theoretical information, methods and resources for education and training activities, along with concrete exercises that users can put into practice in their daily work. Violence is a serious issue which directly affects the lives of many young people. It often results in lasting damage to their well-being and integrity, putting even their lives at risk. Gender-based violence, including violence against women, remains a key human rights challenge in contemporary Europe and in the world. Working with young people on human rights education is one way of preventing gender-based violence from occurring. By raising awareness on why and how it manifests and exploring its impact on people and in society, gender-based violence will no longer go undetected. Gender really does matter, to women, to men, to young people - to all of us. This manual serves to explore these human rights issues and act upon them."--Book jacket.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fixing the Broken Promise of Education for All, published by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics and UNICEF, presents the latest statistical evidence from administrative records and household surveys to better identify children who are out of school and the reasons for their exclusion from education. It aims to inform the policies needed to reach these children and finally deliver the promise of Education for All. Based on a series of national and regional studies and policy analysis by leading experts, the report explains why better data and cross-sector collaboration are fundamental to the design of effective interventions to overcome the barriers facing out-of-school children and adolescents. While highlighting the way forward for system-wide policies to improve educational quality and affordability, the report also presents the information needed for targeted approaches to address the compounding effects of disadvantage faced by children caught up in armed conflict, girls, working children, children with disabilities, or members of ethnic or linguistic minorities. This report presents a roadmap to improve the data, research and policies needed to catalyse action for out-of-school children as the world embarks on a new development agenda for education.

Download or read book Accueillir tous les enfants l cole la question de l inclusion Revue 76 written by CIEP and published by Didier. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La question de l’inclusion est aujourd’hui au cœur des problématiques éducatives. Alors qu’à l’origine, elle concernait surtout les élèves handicapés ou présentant des troubles de l’apprentissage, l’école inclusive se donne désormais pour objectif de veiller à l’inclusion de tous les enfants, sans distinction, en prenant en compte leur diversité. On constate cependant que ce discours s’accompagne, à divers degrés selon les pays, d’un maintien ou d’une aggravation des inégalités scolaires, de difficultés d’enseignement pour les professeurs et, parfois, de résistances familiales. Ce nouveau dossier de la Revue internationale d’éducation de Sèvres se propose d’apporter des regards croisés sur cette problématique, en interrogeant l’évolution des conceptions éducatives au sein de neuf pays : l’Italie, le Brésil, Israël, les États-Unis, la Slovaquie, le Mali, le Laos, la Suisse et la France. Dans chaque pays, le parcours vers l’inclusion est un processus long et jalonné de multiples étapes. Des intentions aux réalisations, les institutions et leurs acteurs sont partout projetés dans des situations d’une grande complexité. Pour les auteurs, l’inclusion scolaire constitue cependant un objectif atteignable, et offre un potentiel pour améliorer la cohésion sociale, les relations interculturelles et les possibilités d’éducation de tous les enfants. La question centrale est celle de la capacité des systèmes éducatifs à mobiliser tous les acteurs en faveur de l’inclusion.
