Education International is saddened by the news of the death of Gareth Young, deputy general secretary of the NASUWT–The Teachers’ Union, on 14 December.

Education International brough over 170 scholars, experts, unionists, and activists together to explore how research can underpin advocacy for quality education. The global group met at the 15th Research Network (ResNet) online meeting on 28-29 October.

Pedagogy should underpin technology if society wants quality education for all in a context defined by COVID-19. That is according to a new report, “A Review of Technology in Teaching and Learning”, by Education International.

Research in education is imperative to reverse misleading education policies and attacks on trade union rights, and it is crucial for education unions to have effective coordination and exchange around national and regional research activities.

The role of unions in helping teachers negotiate professional issues and the impact of data on education were standout topics during Education International’s Research Network.

With an aim to research, refine, and resist, teachers’ unions are reinforcing their leading role at the cutting edge of research methods and practices at the 13th annual Education International Research Network meeting.
