Knowledge-Sharing and Publications
Experience shows that educational reforms that work in one country or setting may also work in another country if modified appropriately to meet local conditions. Through access to information, countries can learn from each other’s experiences, whether they be success stories or stories about disappointments.
UNESCO-UNEVOC Publications Programme
As an intellectual organisation, UNESCO contributes to the debate on key aspects of education. For this purpose, the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre has its own publications programme. It seeks to advance current debates on the future of work and ways of strengthening and upgrading education for the world of work. Publications range from an  International Handbook and Book Series on current developments in TVET to discussion papers, case studies and the proceedings of conferences, seminars and workshops. The Centre uses traditional forms of publishing as well as new information and communication technologies, such as CD-ROMs and the Internet.
UNESCO-UNEVOC Bulletin
Since 2001, the UNESCO-UNEVOC Bulletin has been published several times a year. It is the newsletter of the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre, disseminated to individual experts and institutions in the field of TVET. It also serves as a platform for information sharing, for other agencies engaged in TVET to report on their activities. The UNESCO-UNEVOC Bulletin is available in several languages and in paper format as well as in electronic form.
Annotated Bibliographies
Researchers, policy makers and practitioners working in TVET have a continuing need to keep up-to-date with latest developments in the field, including current innovations and best practices. To meet this requirement, the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre prepares annotated bibliographies that showcase worldwide developments in TVET. The bibliographies reflect the range of currently available literature in terms of articles, books, government reports, UN agency documents, donor community documents, research theses, and other sources available on the Internet.
Website
The website of the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre makes resources in TVET available to those who have access to the Internet. For all those who are not connected, information on UNESCO-UNEVOC is available on CD-ROM.
Clearing-House
Through its clearing-house function the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre collects, structures and disseminates relevant TVET materials and responds to individual requests for information. |

Just published: Vocationalisation of Secondary Education Revisited
 The book, edited jointly by Jon Lauglo and Rupert Maclean, is a cutting-edge contribution to the debate which has occurred for some time on the pros and cons of secondary education becoming more closely and explicitly related to preparing young people for the world of work. The book provides concrete examples of the vocationalisation of secondary education, with particular reference to the situation in Africa.
