An interpretive study of education access, continuity, recognition and public responsibility

feasibility and humanitarian, instruments, available in Continuity and Inclusion under the New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants require to connect evidence with delivery, unequal effect and correction. It affirms shared responsibility for large movements of refugees and migrants and includes a commitment concerning access to quality education for refugee and migrant children within a limited period after arrival. At this report's evidence cut-off, the Declaration is an adopted political instrument. It should not be represented as proof of later national delivery, a completed compact or a settled global implementation arrangement.

Global Citizenship and Sustainable Development Learning: Evidence Expectations

A global standards interpretive study of curricular intent, learning evidence, institutional coherence and equity

The adoption of target 4.7 created a broad expectation that education should contribute to sustainable development, human rights, gender equality, peace, non-violence, global citizenship and appreciation of cultural diversity. The standard is intentionally connected, but evidence cannot treat its terms as interchangeable. Global citizenship, sustainable-development learning, human-rights education and peace education have distinct normative histories and educational emphases. A responsible interpretation shows their relationships while preserving the substantive content of each.
