Virtual Sub-regional Consultations on the Report on 5-Year Progress Review of SDG4 (Education 2030) in Asia-Pacific

Five years after the formal adoption of the Incheon Declaration for Education 2030 in May 2015, the Regional Thematic Working Group (RTWG) – Education 2030+, through its co-chairs UNESCO and UNICEF, has undertaken the Progress Review of SDG4 in Asia-Pacific.

The progress review was conducted with the following objectives to: (a) assess the overall progress of the Asia-Pacific region since 2015 and to draw lessons for and insights into the implementation of SDG4; and (b) prepare a regional report and present its key findings as main discussion input at the 2nd Asia Pacific Regional Education Minister’s Conference (APREMC-II) on Education 2030 in 2021.

As part of the broader review process, UNESCO and UNICEF is co-organizing the consultations to discuss, validate, and gather sub-regional inputs from Member States on the draft report on 5-Year Progress Review of SDG4 in Asia Pacific. The meeting aims to provide government officials the opportunity to review and provide feedback on the report.
