From UNESCO:

“On this World Teachers’ Day, UNESCO, ILO, UNICEF and Education International call on  governments,  partners  and  the  international  community  to  make  a  collective  commitment to ensuring that collaboration is recognized as a norm within the teaching profession  –  because  it  is  only  through  effective  cooperation  at  all  levels  that  we  can  build truly inclusive, equitable and resilient education systems worldwide.”

World Teachers’ Day


From UNESCO:

Teachers play a pivotal role in shaping the future by nurturing students and driving educational progress. However, to fully harness their potential, it’s crucial that their voices are heard and valued in the decision-making processes that affect their profession. This year’s World Teachers’ Day highlights the need to address the systemic challenges teachers face and to establish a more inclusive dialogue about their role in education. The 2024 celebrations will focus on “Valuing teacher voices: towards a new social contract for education”, underscoring the urgency of calling for and attending to teachers’ voices to address their challenges but, most importantly, to acknowledge and benefit from the expert knowledge and input that they bring to education.
