UNESCO Associated Schools Network in Quebec

In Canada, the Network is active in most provinces and territories and includes more than 100 schools. Educators and students explore, through regional, national, and international projects and initiatives, the following four areas of action:

• The mission and mandate of UNESCO and the Sustainable Development Goals
• Global citizenship education
• Education for sustainable development and climate change action
• Indigenous education and reconciliation

Éducation internationale, coordinator of the Steering Committee of the Associated Schools Network of Quebec, invites you to apply to join the Quebec Network of UNESCO Associated Schools.

Through the organization of an annual competition, the Quebec Network offers schools the opportunity to submit their application to become part of the UNESCO Associated Schools.

The Quebec Ministry of Education (MEQ) has entrusted the mandate to develop and manage the network of Quebec Associated Schools to a committee composed of representatives from Éducation internationale, the Federation of Quebec School Boards, the Central Union of Quebec, and the Federation of Private Educational Institutions.

The MEQ has been funding the Network since 2007.
