ASPnet Newsletter - CONNECT (Issue 11)

19. avgust 2020

Dear National Coordinators,
Dear teachers, students and parents,

Summer greetings from the International Coordination team. In this issue of our newsletter, we want to present to you a new activity that has partially resulted from your great contributions during our first global ASPnet webinar in May “COVID-19: Reflections by the ASPnet community”. The overarching question we would like to address with you is: How should we re-imagine education, learning and knowledge in a world of increasing complexity, uncertainty, and fragility?

We have been working together with UNESCO’s “Futures of Education” Initiative team to set out a special initiative for you, that will run until the end of 2020.

We will invite all the ASPnet National Coordinators to organize national focus group discussions with you – ASPnet students, teachers, school principals and parents – to debate, rethink education, and contribute to shaping the future. Following national deliberations, we will hold three regional webinars (one in English, French and Spanish) for all the participants from the national focus groups to share their reflections and ideas with each other and to engage with UNESCO staff and experts, as well as representatives from UNESCO’s High-Level International Commission on the Futures of Education.

The insights, ideas and good practice examples that you will bring to the table through these different discussion fora, will inform the global debate led by the International Commission and will contribute to shaping the UNESCO flagship report on the Futures of Education (to be published in 2021).  ASPnet’s mission and work to foster global citizens for sustainable development will be central elements of the/our discussion and we would be happy to hear your opinions, thoughts and ideas on this subject. Your participation is important as it allows school communities’ voices to be heard, and it influences and contributes to shaping the global debate!

We hope that you will join us to take part in this new initiative with us. We strongly hope it will be an opportunity for us to engage in a process of reflection as a community, to re-imagine on the futures of education, and to strengthen our collective work, as well as an opportunity to bring about more just, peaceful and sustainable societies that foster global citizens for sustainable development.

As usual, we also share information on what else is going on at UNESCO, and, of course, some of the testimonies from the members of our ASPnet community.

Stay safe. Stay CONNECTed!
