It is the story of a young man’s activism and fervour, as well as the trauma he suffers in the aftermath of partition and the gruesome fratricidal conflict between India and Pakistan. Madanjeet Singh is a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador. He established the Sumitra Foundation (SF) in 1995, which holds firm the conviction that without education and family planning alleviation of poverty is impossible. In 2000, he also set up the South Asia Foundation (SAF), which is a non-profit, non-political and secular youth movement created to benefit disadvantaged and marginalized communities in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The objectives of SF and SAF are two sides of the same coin, the theme of The Sasia Story.

This edition presents a rich set of cross-nationally comparable data compiled by the UIS as well as information from household surveys and assessments of learning achievement that capture the scope of gender disparities across the world. The international community pledged to eliminate gender disparities in all levels of education by 2015 as part of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Yet 63% of countries (out of 157 with available data) are still faced with gender disparities in primary and secondary education and these imbalances will probably persist in nearly half of countries in 2015. The Digest presents a wide range of education indicators and data for the school year ending in 2008 or the latest available year, as well as data for 2009 for a small number of countries. It includes data tables from the World Education Indicators programme, which are comparable across a group of 62 countries. These indicators can help benchmark the performance of national education systems.

It includes data tables from the World Education Indicators (WEI) programme, which are comparable across a group of 62 countries, including those that are members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). In addition, time series data on tertiary education from 1970 onwards are presented.

By highlighting trends in the numbers and quality of teachers, especially in developing countries, it explores the policy implications that come into play when attempts are made to bridge any gaps between the two. It also compares the strengths and shortcomings of recruitment and deployment policies, as well as looking at working conditions around the world. Data on less-developed countries, in particular, are presented from a wide range of sources. These include administrative data, student assessment studies and special data collection on primary and secondary teachers in 25 countries. Aiming to inform policy-making, the report employs international benchmarks for monitoring change. This publication also features a unique methodology for simulating teacher demand by 2015. It not merely projects demand, but defines fixed targets described in terms of indicators, also applying a model to quantify the minimum required to reach stated goals.
