Transforming Curriculum

The UNESCO-IBE acknowledges that the curriculum has a significant impact on the information, abilities, and values that students learn.

Our Transforming Curriculum initiative seeks to assist nations in creating and putting into place curricula that are successful in fulfilling the requirements of students and society.

Capacity Development

We provide countries with technical support in designing and transforming curricula for a greater impact on education quality. We also provide countries with tailored training to strengthen their autochthone curriculum change. 

 

Curriculum Development
Early Childhood Education

We build a transformative journey that nurtures young minds, fostering holistic development and instilling a love for learning from the very beginning.

It encompasses a range of enriching experiences, including play-based activities, social interactions, and tailored instruction, designed to cultivate a solid educational framework during a child's formative years.

Hybrid Learning

Hybrid learning combines and integrates physical and virtual presence to expand and democratize learning opportunities, processes, and outcomes for all learners. Curriculum makes it possible to restructure the teaching, learning, and assessment methodologies based on the complementarity between face-to-face and distance learning and enhance and democratize education.

Hybrid earning
Multilingual Education

We support the creation and implementation of programs that value the role that students' mother tongues play in the learning process.

This entails creating curricular resources in several languages, educating instructors in multilingual pedagogy, and encouraging the use of regional languages in the classroom.

Multilingual Education
Greening Education

The UNESCO-IBE green and blue curriculum initiative focuses on supporting the implementation of the TES demand to integrate climate education into all aspects of teaching and at least double the number of countries that include climate education in school curricula at the pre-primary, primary, and secondary levels from the current 45%.
