A World of Bridges, Not Walls: Migration, Displacement & Education

Leave no one behind. This is among the most aspirational global commitments of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Migration and displacement are two global challenges, and interact with education in many ways. These links affect those who move, those who stay and those who host immigrants, refugees or other displaced populations. Hear the latest research on these issues in a conversation with Bilal Barakat, Senior Policy Analyst of UNESCO's landmark Global Education Monitoring (GEM) report. Over a year in the making, the report analyses all 195 education systems around the world and presents evidence on the implications of different types of migration and displacement for education but also the impact that reforming curricula, pedagogy and teacher preparation can have on embracing diversity. The report also presents the annual analysis of progress towards each of the education targets in the new Sustainable Development Goals framework.
