Commonwealth business communicationshttps://doi.org/10.60682/y7yy-re95ChapterThere has recently been much reference to the transformation of education in global development discourse. This is undoubtedly related to the Transforming Education Summit (TES) convened by the United Nations (UN) Secretary-General in New York in September 2022. The process around the Summit arguably represents one of the most significant mobilisations of the international education community in recent years. Bringing together heads of state and government in New York, the Summit was preceded by a pre-Summit at UNESCO in Paris attended by over 150 Ministers and Deputy Ministers of Education. The process also included the mobilisation of international expertise around five thematic tracks, the organisation of national consultations with over 130 countries submitting national statements of commitment to transform education, and the release of a vision statement by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.enResearch Subject Categories::SOCIAL SCIENCES::Social sciences::EducationBook
