UNESCO King Hamad Bin Isa Al-Khalifa Prize Application Instruction

Details of UNESCO King Hamad Bin Isa Al-Khalifa Prize.

Each year the UNESCO King Hamad Bin Isa Al-Khalifa Prize has a specific theme to be taken into account by nomination proposals.

The theme of the 2021 edition of the Prize is the use of technology to enable inclusive crisis-resilient learning systems.

The disruptive effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have revealed the urgent need for governments to reimagine the future of schooling models and leverage technology to build crisis-resilient learning systems. Inclusive and crisis-resilient learning systems not only include connectivity and access to digital devices, but also the provision of age-appropriate digital content and digital skills training for teachers, students, and caregivers. In addition, the digitalization of learning systems must be guided by humanistic principles to ensure that technology protects human rights, and ensures inclusion and equity. Technology should be in the service of human interactions and capacity development.
During the pandemic, successful learning systems, built on progressive adoption of continuously upgraded technology in education have emerged, which have allowed countries to minimize the scale and scope of educational disruption during the crisis.

The 2021 edition of the Prize will award projects that have built and implemented technology-enabled public learning systems and programmes that effectively ensured the continuity and quality of learning for all. The projects must ensure the data privacy and well-being of students, teachers, and caregivers. They should also consider the adoption of greening strategies to mitigate or neutralize.

Individuals, institutions, non-governmental organizations or other entities.
