NORRAG Blog Series: Pact for the Future

On the occasion of the upcoming UN Summit of the Future, to be held 22-23 September 2024, NORRAG is launching a call for contributions to a blog series on the UN Pact for the Future, which will be endorsed at the Summit. The United Nations have launched a draft of the Pact for the Future, which will serve as a starting point for the discussions and negotiations to be held at the Summit in September.

While education is mentioned several times in the draft of the Pact for the Future, many have argued that the role of education could be strengthened. We invite NORRAG’s community to contribute blogposts on their views on the draft of the Pact for the Future from the perspective of education,  discussing aspects that are missing or that require greater attention.

The blog series will be curated and edited by Maren Elfert, NORRAG blog editor. We welcome blog contributions from education practitioners, policy makers and researcher-practitioners. In particular, we welcome contributions from experts whose perspectives may be under-represented in international education policy discussions, including from the Global South.

Please refer to the general guidelines for NORRAG blog submissions.
