etails<\/h4>\n

This seminar forms part of a series discussing the report of The International Commission on the Futures of Education, \u201cReimagining our futures together: A new social contract for education\u201d (2021). An earlier seminar hosted by the Education University of Hong Kong focused on educational technology. This seminar will reflect more broadly on the central, organizing concept of the report, \u201cA New Social Contract for Education\u201d, and on the United Nation\u2019s related calls for education to play a socially \u201ctransformative\u201d role.<\/p>\n

The UNESCO Chair in Education for Peace, Social Justice and Global Citizenship, in association with the Comparative Education Society of Asia (CESA), proposes a seminar that interrogates the agenda for social transformation through education. We will invite distinguished speakers from Asia and beyond to share their views on the potential – and limitations – of education as a vehicle for achieving social justice and sustainable development. Guiding the discussion will be the question of whether there is a need to rebalance public debate towards a greater focus on the social changes required to realize a vision of education that prioritizes human dignity and agency. In other words, do we need to pay greater attention to the need for social change in order to transform education, as well as to the potential for education to transform society?<\/p>\n

The theme of the proposed seminar is \u201cChallenges to Realising a Transformative Vision of Education: Asian Perspectives\u201d. The seminar will begin with an exposition of the central messages of the Futures of Education report, \u201cReimagining our futures together\u201d, with its call for a new \u201cSocial Contract for Education”. Eminent scholars with expertise on various Asian societies will then share their reflections on what would need to change in order for a transformative vision of education to be realized. The panelists will then debate and field questions from the audience, who will also be invited to share brief observations based on their own experience.<\/p>\n
