Christoph Jost from DVV International re-elected as European representative in UNESCO CCNGO/ED 2030

Christoph Jost, Director of DVV International, has been elected for the second term as the European representative of the UNESCO CCNGO/ED 2030 Coordination Group.

EAEA is very pleased to announce that Christoph Jost, Director of our German member organisation DVV International, has been re-elected to represent the European region on the UNESCO CCNGO/ED 2030 Coordination Group. Christoph Jost was nominated by EAEA to represent European adult learning and education on the group and served his first term on the Coordination Group from 2017 to 2021.

The Collective Consultation of NGOs on Education 2030 (CCNGO/ED 2030) is UNESCO’s main mechanism for dialogue, reflection and partnerships with NGOs within the Education For All movement. It aims to give civil society a voice in the implementation process of the SDGs in education and lifelong learning. The group also regularly publishes policy statements and reports on highly topical issues, such as the Futures of Education initiative, but also education during the COVID 19 pandemic.

We warmly congratulate Christoph Jost on his re-election and look forward to working with the UNESCO CCNGO in the years to come!

The transformative power of education in closed environments

Education is a fundamental right. But for people living in prisons, detention centres, and other closed environments, that right often remains out of reach. At the EAEA Annual Conference in Warsaw, a workshop brought together adult education practitioners to explore what it takes to make education (including digital education) a reality behind closed doors and how ALE can contribute actively to systemic change.
