Human rights are at the heart of UNESCO's work in the fields of
education, science and culture. Conceived from an international
human rights legal framework, Human Rights in Education, Science
and Culture: Legal Developments and Challenges combines insights
into the content, scope of application and corresponding state
obligations of these rights with analyses of issues relating to
their implementation. The volume begins by presenting the
principles of the indivisibility, interrelatedness and
interdependence of all human rights. It then turns to questions
related to economic, social and cultural rights, including their
justiciability, their application between private parties and the
development of indicators for measuring their implementation.
Finally, it addresses the right to education, the right to enjoy
the benefits of scientific progress and its applications, and the
right to take part in cultural life - the content and scope of
application of the latter two rights being especially in need of
further elucidation. Dedicated to the sixtieth anniversary of the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, this volume should be an
invaluable resource for all those working in the area of human
rights.
50 transformative acts of kindness. For the self. For others. For
nature. Aimed at mobilizing the world's youth to create a positive
culture of kindness, the UNESCO Mahatma Gandhi Institute of
Education for Peace and Sustainable Development (MGIEP) launched
the #KindnessMatters global campaign to gather proof that kindness
could drive scalable, positive and sustainable change. In the
process, they were met with narratives so deeply moving, it
confirmed what they knew all along-that kindness wasn't defined by
lofty tales; it had always existed all around us, what we needed
was to celebrate it in every moment of life because
#KindnessMatters every day. Inspiring and thought-provoking,
#KindnessMatters documents stories and poems of kindness from
across the world, featuring voices and journeys of people who have
dedicated their lives to making the world a kinder place. This book
proves that small actions often have the biggest impact.

The International Federation of Library Associations and
Institutions (IFLA) is the leading international body representing
the interests of library and information services and their users.
It is the global voice of the information profession. The series
IFLA Publications deals with many of the means through which
libraries, information centres, and information professionals
worldwide can formulate their goals, exert their influence as a
group, protect their interests, and find solutions to global
problems.
The Report examines the education impact of migration and
displacement across all population movements: within and across
borders, voluntary and forced, for employment and education. It
also reviews progress on education in the 2030 Agenda for
Sustainable Development. In view of increasing diversity, the
report analyses how education can build inclusive societies and
help people move beyond tolerance and learn to live together.
The Global Report series has been designed to monitor the
implementation of the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and
Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (2005). It also
provides evidence of how this implementation process contributes to
attaining the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and
targets. The 2018 Global Report analyses progress achieved in
implementing the 2005 Convention since the first Global Report was
published in 2015. Grounded in the analysis of the Quadrennial
Periodic Reports submitted by Parties to the Convention and
relevant new findings, this report examines how the 2005 Convention
has inspired policy change at the global and country level in ten
areas of monitoring. It puts forward a set of policy
recommendations for the future, addressing the adaptation of
cultural policies to rapid change in the digital environment, based
on human rights and fundamental freedoms. When deployed together,
the two editions of the Global Report are beginning to produce new
and valuable evidence to inform cultural policy making and advance
creativity for development.
