Knowledge generation and dissemination

UNESCO continuously encourages knowledge generation, dissemination, and policy dialogue. Since 2002, Bangladesh Forum for Educational Development (BAFED), with UNESCO's support, has been organizing two conferences for education researchers each year. Institute of Educational Development (IED) of BRAC University has been a partner with both initiatives. The Bangladesh Education Journal has played an important role in disseminating educational research findings and highlights of current trends, challenges and debates on policies in the country.

Besides regular publication of two journals, UNESCO published a series of studies on basic education, ICTs, literacy assessments, teacher development, and community learning activities and so on.  There are still rich resource materials from different activities of UNESCO Dhaka, which need to be consolidated and made available through different Medias in particular its website, print and non-print materials.

UNESCO Dhaka has also translated several international norms, standard and reports into Bengali to disseminate them widely in the country such as Technical and Vocational Education and Training for the Twenty-first Century- UNESCO and ILO Recommendations, The ILO/UNESCO Recommendation concerning the Status of Teachers (1966) and The UNESCO Recommendation concerning the Status of Higher-Education Teaching Personnel (1997), Convention against Discrimination in Education -1960.
