An evidence-informed education: Empowering schools and policy institutions through a culture of research engagement
Date: 20 September
Time: 16:00 CET
Despite enormous effort and investment across OECD countries to reinforce the quality, production and use of education research, many countries and education systems struggle to use research systematically and at scale.
Join this Q&A webinar and discover the path to a research-engaged education! Discuss with experts what a culture of research engagement should look like in education. Unpack the skills, resources and attitudes that are required to support it. And we’ll explore the role that relationships play in all of this.
If you’ve missed it, it is a must-see!
The side event at the 16th session of COSP on Inclusive Education: an imperative for advancing human rights and sustainable development – watch it now!
The side event, held in June 2023, was a contribution to SDG 4 and to the follow-up to the UN Transforming Education Summit, which was convened by the UN Secretary-General in response to the global crisis in education – one of equity and inclusion, quality and relevance. There is an urgent need to accelerate efforts and action to ensure that persons with physical, emotional, developmental and intellectual disabilities are not left behind.
Only 12% of the Sustainable Development Goal targets are on track. Marginalised learners – including those with disabilities – are being left behind.
In this special episode, Liesbeth Roolvink talks on the podcast ‘ Goal 4′ about Sightsavers’ #promiseinperil campaign, and what we can all do today to get involved (hint: it takes about 3 seconds).
Do you want to be part of a global conversation that puts communities in charge of their own development and that produces flourishing lives for all?
Do you believe that the current international funding system can and must be re-shaped to be more locally-owned and locally-led?
Do you want to be inspired by new ways of deciding and doing that are emerging around the world, that centre dignity, equity and trust – and that recognize the resources and inherent power of communities?
If so, join the summit in Bogotá from 5–7 December 2023!
The World Bank funded study and report ‘Approaches to Deliver Inclusive Education in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia‘ presents a review of different approaches in service delivery being implemented in the regions of Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia to ensure the inclusion of children with disabilities in education.
The review examines in what ways (and the extent to which) different approaches have been operationalized and contextualized to enable the inclusion of children with disabilities in mainstream education systems, focusing specifically on primary schooling.

The Inclusive Lifelong Learning conference drew to a close in July 2023 and participants overwhelmingly called for the promotion of inclusive lifelong learning ecosystems that effectively cater to the needs of all learners, especially vulnerable and marginalized individuals and communities.
Through the Bali Manifesto, the conference’s outcome document, they called for the implementation of comprehensive lifelong learning policies, and the creation of inclusive learning spaces, curricula, learning pathways and learning materials. They emphasized the importance of increased public investment in lifelong learning.
