FreshEd #140 – Measuring and Monitoring the SDGs (Silvia Montoya)

Today we take stock of the Sustainable Development Goals, which were adopted by the United Nations three years ago. With me is Silvia Montoya who is the director of the UNESCO Institute of Statistics. UIS is charged with monitoring some of the SDGs. In our conversation, which we had on the sidelines of the Global Education Meeting in Brussels, we dive into the problems and challenges of trying to measure concepts such as literacy, global citizenship, and sustainability. Today’s episode of FreshEd was made possible through the support of the Graduate School of Education at the University of Tokyo and Education International. www.freshedpodcast.com/montoya email: info@freshedpodcast.com twitter: @freshedpodcast
