The High-Level Panel on the Teaching Profession was convened by the United Nations Secretary General in response to the global teacher shortage. Tasked with providing policy advice for governments to ensure that every child’s right to a professionally-trained, qualified, and well-supported teacher is fulfilled, the Panel identified 59 recommendations.

The Panel specifies that all 59 recommendations apply, as relevant, to all education levels and streams. However, there are some recommendations that early childhood education (ECE) unions will find particularly useful when advocating for ECE personnel.
