Global Schools, SDSN joins UNESCO Teacher Task Force

SDSN has officially been endorsed as a member of the International Task Force on Teachers for Education 2030 (TTF), with the Global Schools Program leading the initiative as the focal point for SDSN.

The taskforce is a unique partnership of organizations around the world hosted by the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris to advocate for teachers and the teaching profession. This is a unique global alliance working solely on teachers and teacher-related issues, dedicated to "raising awareness, expanding knowledge and supporting countries on the questions and themes raised in target 4.c of SDG 4." The TTF works with other relevant organizations such as the SDG-Education 2030 Steering Committee, the Global Education Monitoring Report, and more.

SDSN joins three new Member States and two organizations that were approved for membership by the Steering Committee this year. These include Iceland (Ministry of Education and Children) Italy (MIM), Latvia (Ministry of Education and Science of Latvia), the Aga Khan Foundation, and the Queen Rania Teacher Academy (QRTA).

SDSN looks forward to engaging with other TTF members, the steering committee, Member States, regional and thematic groups, as well as the UNESCO Secretariat to advocate for teachers and teaching worldwide.
