Teacher Task Force - UNESCO Global Report

Reported by: Teacher Task Force

We are proud to announce that the long-awaited first Teacher Task Force & UNESCO Global Report on Teachers was officially launched on the first day of the 14th hashtagTeacherPolicyForum in Johannesburg, South Africa.


With new data, including on financing, and recommendations to address the critical issue of global teacher shortages, the report serves as a call to action for education actors and policymakers, setting the tone for three days of dialogue in Johannesburg during our flagship event.
