2/5📍In Zawtar El Gharbiyeh, I walked through Imam Al-Sadr Public School. Its classrooms &lab remain heavily damaged from a direct strike. Yet children are learning again, thanks to the dedicated director & teachers. With winter approaching, restoring safe classrooms is urgent.

At Burj Qalaway in South🇱🇧, I listened to children back to learning. Their dreams reflect what they’ve endured: Adam wants to help people with trauma, Hassan to rebuild as an engineer &Amani to tell the world what they’ve witnessed as a journalist. Heartbreaking, yet inspiring

إنَّ التراث الثقافي غير المادي لا يحيا إلا لأنَّ الناس يواصلون إحياءه. ففي مختلف مناطق العالم، يتعاون حَمَلة هذا التراث وممارسوه، ومنظمات المجتمع المدني، والمؤسسات الثقافية والأكاديمية، والسلطات الوطنية والمحلية، من أجل صونه ونقله والاحتفاء به. وتنتقل هذه العناصر من جيل إلى جيل، فتمنح المجتمعات المحلية شعوراً بالاستمرارية والانتماء. في اليوم الدولي للتراث الثقافي غير المادي، تُقر #اليونسكو وتحتفي بما تزخر به مجتمعاتنا وما يفيض به العالم من تراث ثقافي غير مادي، أي بالمعارف والممارسات والحرف التقليدية، وثقافات الطعام والطقوس وفنون الأداء، والعادات الاجتماعية التي تصل بين الناس عبر الأجيال والثقافات. 🔗unesco.org/en/days/intangibl… #التراث_الثقافي_غير_المادي #من_أجل_الشعوب #التراث_الحي

Global Citizenship Education starts with empowering young people to understand their role, engage with their communities and contribute to a more inclusive world. As a strategic partner of @GOClebanon, #UNESCO is helping bring this global vision into the Lebanese school context.

Le Secteur de l’Éducation de l’#ICESCO a participé au lancement officiel du Mécanisme régional de coordination de l’Objectif de développement durable 4 (ODD 4) dans la région arabe, placé sous le thème « De la coordination à l’action collective ». Organisé par le Bureau régional de l’UNESCO à Beyrouth, cet événement s’inscrit dans le cadre des efforts de l’ICESCO visant à renforcer sa présence institutionnelle et à consolider sa participation aux plateformes régionales de concertation et de coordination consacrées à l’avenir de l’éducation et à ses priorités dans la région arabe. L’ICESCO était représentée à cette rencontre, tenue par visioconférence, par M. Houcine labidi, expert au sein du Secteur de l’Éducation. Selon les présentations faites lors de l’événement, ce mécanisme vise à harmoniser les priorités nationales et régionales, à favoriser l’échange d’expertises et de bonnes pratiques, à renforcer la participation des jeunes et à soutenir le développement de systèmes éducatifs inclusifs et résilients. Le mécanisme entend également organiser des réunions périodiques, intensifier les consultations régionales et préparer la prochaine réunion régionale arabe sur le développement de l’éducation. Ces efforts visent à accélérer la réalisation de l’ODD 4 et à préparer le terrain pour le programme mondial de l’éducation au-delà de 2030. @UNESCOBEIRUT

بمناسبة #اليوم_العالمي_للمعلمين، نحتفي بالمعلمين الذين يبقون على التعلم حياً في خضم الأزمات. عاد المعلمون في جنوب لبنان إلى فصولهم الدراسية، على الرغم من النزاع، ليعيدوا إلى الأطفال شعورهم بالانتماء. وتساندهم اليونسكو من خلال تزويدهم بمهارات التعلم الرقمي والدعم النفسي الاجتماعي. 📚 للاستزادة: unesco.org/ar/articles/fy-aw…
