Teachers are not just part of education systems — they are the foundation.

As digital tools become more present in classrooms, the role of teachers becomes even more critical — to guide learning, foster values, and support every student’s potential.

Yet, too many teachers lack access to training, connectivity, or even recognition. Only 15 countries have integrated AI in curricula, and just 7 have frameworks to support teachers with it.

UNESCO is working to ensure that teachers remain central to education — equipped, supported, and empowered to lead learning in all its forms. Learn more: https://www.unesco.org/en/teachers-cannot-be-coded

💃🌍 Happy International Dance Day! 🕺✨

Today we celebrate the universal language of dance—an art form that transcends borders, bridges cultures, and builds understanding where words sometimes fall short.

The International Dance Council also sees to it by harnessing the power of dance in our Cultural Diplomacy mandate - equipping diplomats and cultural professionals with the tools and support to design initiatives that unite rather than divide.

May dance be globally embraced for its profound social role—breaking down barriers, preventing conflict, and weaving understanding into the fabric of our everyday lives.
