'Just published: regional reports on adult learning and education'

"Four regional reports on adult learning and literacy have been published focusing on the Arab States, Asia and the Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa between 1997 to 2007. These regional reports will inform discussions at the Sixth International Conference on Adult Education (CONFINTEA VI) to take place end of 2009 in Brazil.

Compiled by UNESCO Member States, the four reports include national information on the situation of adult learning and education since the fifth International Conference on Adult Education (CONFINTEA V) in 1997.

The Sixth International Conference on Adult Education (CONFINTEA VI) was to be held 19-22 May 2009 but was postponed by the Brazilian government due to health security concerns about Influenza A (H1N1). The new dates for the conference will be confirmed shortly." (UNESCO | 24-06-2009)

Teachers and HIV & AIDS

"The online forum “Teachers and HIV & AIDS: Reviewing achievements, identifying challenges” will run from 18 to 29 May. It is hosted by UNESCO’s International Institute for Educational Planning (IIEP) and the UNAIDS Inter-Agency Task Team (IATT) on Education.
This e-forum aims to promote the exchange of views and experiences on the contribution of teachers to HIV prevention and mitigation efforts and the impact of the epidemic on teachers.

The outcomes of the forum will directly feed into the Spring meeting of the UNAIDS IATT on Education “Teachers and HIV & AIDS: Reviewing achievements, identifying challenges”, June 2009 in Ireland.

A report on the outcomes of the discussion will be available on IIEP’s HIV and AIDS Education Clearinghouse following the Forum.
