As I went through the website outside resources, I discovered a number of other websites leading me to information pertaining to Education, Culture, natural sciences and communication.
Building a peace of mind for men, women, boys and girls one of the logos used for the UNESCO website. For persons interested in gaining knowledge about their major programmes-education,natural sciences, social & human sciences, culture and communication would be able to visit the site to access pertinent global information.
From the second week of our blog assignments, I have discovered the Calender of Events page, a guide to ongoing and new event from around the world. Although there aren't any recent events in Japan, however I would be willing to attend any of the conferences offered here.
I have not received any newsletters recently, however I looked back on some of the older newsletters. One insight I learned was that data shows that the number of children enrolled in primary school has raised beyond 90%, but in 2010 about 32 million primary pupils repeated a grade, and more than 31 million left school and may never return (UNESCO, 2013). That data was quite astonishing.
The UNESCO website offers information pertaining to equity and excellence in a manner that adds to my personal knowledge on the issue in early childhood education.
Another link I found interesting was based on our discussion earlier this week, I had in my letter to the White House council indicated an expansion of radio education for other languages, for example where Spanish parents could request information and have to broadcast over radio. This week the Italian Government grants US$ 1.2 million to support the Educational Radio and Television ERTV of the Ministry of Education of Afghanistan.
I look forward to the information I can gain from this website whether for personal or professional use.

Hi Kalisa
ReplyDeleteGreat information! It is astounding the there are so many children leaving school. I hope the governments are taking notice of this issue. There will need to be systems in place to allow them to return to upgrade as young adults.
Educational television and radio! What a GREAT idea! This is all such good information. I hope that governments everywhere start paying close attention to these educational issues and push to help the children. Thanks for sharing!
