UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS): Measuring inclusive and equitable quality education and lifelong learning for all

 Education 2030

Measuring inclusive and equitable quality education and lifelong learning for all 

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) will remain just that – a set of goals – without accurate data that countries can use to monitor progress and develop evidence-based policies. In response, the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) is leading the development and production of the frameworks and indicators needed to monitor SDG 4 to ensure equitable and inclusive quality education and lifelong learning for all by 2030.

To guide this work, the UIS is chairing the Technical Advisory Group (TAG) on post-2015 indicators, which includes technical experts from UNESCO, the EFA Global Monitoring Report, UNICEF, the World Bank and the OECD, as well as representatives of different Member States and civil society organizations. The TAG has released a new proposal presenting a framework for thematic monitoring of SDG 4 (including 43 indicators) based on extensive consultations with Member States, experts and the public. These indicators are included in the Education 2030 Framework for Action, which was adopted by Member States at UNESCO’s General Conference in November 2015. 

 

At the same time, the UIS is working with partners to develop the initiatives needed to produce a range of new indicators especially in priority areas, such as learning, equity and education finance.
