Broken Chalk Platform, in March 2019, was founded by a group of educators abroad who experienced and have been experiencing severe human rights violations in Turkey and had to ask for asylum currently in several countries.

These education volunteers also suffered greatly and started their new lives in their new countries without human rights violations. They gained respect just because they were considered human beings in those countries. However, they left one part of their minds and hearts in their homeland. They assigned themselves a new duty, and the human rights violations they left behind had to be announced to the World. A group of education volunteers who came together for this purpose started their activities under the Broken Chalk platform’s umbrella. However, the Broken Chalk platform was not enough to serve their aims. Therefore, they completed their official establishment as a Human Rights Foundation in October 2020.

Broken Chalk is now much more than a platform, and we have reviewed and enlarged our vision and mission within this framework. Violations of rights would be the first in our agenda in the field of Education all over the World. At the point we reached today, Broken Chalk opened its door to all individuals from all across the globe, from all professions, and to all individuals who say or can say ‘I also want to stand against violations of human rights in Education for our future and whole humanity, where our generations grow up together.’

Education is essential because it can help us eliminate the evils from society, introduce, and increase the good. We want to draw the public’s and stakeholders’ attention to the fact that Education is in danger in several different parts of the World. The attacks are wide-reaching, from the bombing of schools to the murder of students and teachers. Raping and sexual violence, arbitrary arrests, and forced recruitment also occurred, instigated by armed groups. Attacks on Education harm the students and teachers but also affect the communities in the short and long term.

We invite all individuals who want to stop human rights violations in Education to become Volunteers at Broken Chalk.

The Enduring Legacy of Jacques Delors: Transformative Visions for Education and Society

Written by Laraib Ahmed

Jacques Delors is a prominent French economist and politician who notably served as the President of the European Commission from 1985 to 1995. He played a significant role in shaping the European Union (EU) during a crucial period of its development. Delors is widely recognized for his efforts in advancing European integration and was instrumental in implementing the Single European Act, which aimed to create a single market within the European Economic Community (EEC), that now developed into being the EU. He also pushed for the creation of the euro currency, which became a reality after his tenure. Delors is considered a key figure in modern European politics due to his contributions to the EU’s growth and development.1

The Delors Report, “Learning: the Treasure Within,” commissioned by UNESCO in 1996 and chaired by Jacques Delors, delineated four pivotal pillars of education essential for personal and societal growth.

Firstly, “Learning to Know” transcends the mere accumulation of facts and figures. It champions the cultivation of critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and a comprehensive understanding of various subjects. This pillar advocates for an educational approach that not only imparts knowledge but also encourages lifelong curiosity and adaptability in an ever-evolving landscape.

Secondly, “Learning to Do” underscores the significance of practical application alongside theoretical learning. It acknowledges the importance of vocational training, hands-on experience, and the development of technical competencies tailored to specific professions or tasks. This pillar aims to equip individuals with the practical skills necessary to excel in their chosen fields and adapt to evolving professional demands.

The third pillar, “Learning to Be,” prioritises holistic development. It places emphasis not solely on academic achievement but also on emotional intelligence, self-awareness, values education, and personal growth. Its goal is to nurture well-rounded individuals capable of making sound decisions, understanding themselves and others, and positively contributing to society.

Lastly, “Learning to Live Together” accentuates the fostering of social cohesion, intercultural understanding, and global citizenship. It advocates for an educational framework that fosters respect for diversity, tolerance, empathy, and peaceful coexistence among individuals from various backgrounds. This pillar aims to prepare individuals to thrive in a diverse, interconnected world by cultivating a sense of shared humanity and collective responsibility.

Collectively, these pillars advocate for an inclusive and comprehensive educational system. They stress the development of critical skills, personal growth, social harmony, and a global mindset to enable individuals to navigate the complexities of the modern world and actively contribute to the betterment of their communities and societies. 2

The Delors Report’s enduring significance stems from its enduring principles that address the evolving needs of education and society. By advocating for a comprehensive educational approach, the report remains vital today, recognizing the necessity of equipping individuals not only with academic knowledge but also practical skills, emotional intelligence, and a sense of social responsibility. Its call for adaptability in education, relevant in our rapidly changing world, emphasises the importance of versatile, adaptable skills amid technological advancements and shifts in the job market.3

Moreover, the report’s emphasis on fostering global citizenship, intercultural understanding, and social cohesion resonates strongly in our increasingly interconnected world. It stresses the preparation of individuals to thrive in diverse settings, advocating for inclusive societies amidst globalizations. The concept of lifelong learning, a central tenet of the report, holds particular relevance today, acknowledging the necessity of continuous learning and upskilling in the face of emerging technologies and evolving paradigms. The report’s focus on personal development, emotional intelligence, and values aligns seamlessly with ongoing discussions about well-being, mental health, and the holistic nurturing of individuals. Its principles continue to guide educational discussions and reforms, shaping education to meet the challenges and opportunities of the contemporary world by emphasizing adaptable skills, global awareness, and holistic development.4
