Relentless population growth, declining working conditions and low salaries are creating a severe shortage of teachers, according to a new UNESCO-ILO global survey of teaching conditions worldwide. The survey “Statistical Profile of the Teaching Profession” is based on the most extensive data ever gathered on the teaching profession. Results indicate that developing regions, where demand for teachers is highest, are the most touched by the shortage. Other results show that, in industrialized countries, the lack of young recruits and low pay are becoming serious threats to the quality of education.
