About FUNDEB and educational inequalities series of webinars

 

The leading indicator of results on basic education development in Brazil (Índice de Desenvolvimento da Educação Básica - IDEB), is nearing its end, by setting targets to be released in 2022. The Fund for maintaining and developing basic education and for valuing the education professionals (Fundo de Manutenção e Desenvolvimento da Educação Básica e de Valorização dos Profissionais da Educação - Fundeb), approved in 2020, predicts the creation of a new indicator that should propose a cycle of educational assessment policies and monitoring results not considered by IDEB, intending to reduce inequalities.

 

 

UNESCO in Brazil, in partnership with the Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV), the Public Policy Study Centre of the State University of Campinas (NEPP/UNICAMP), the Singularidades Institute and the Centre for Research on School Inequalities (NUPEDE) of the Faculty of Education of the Federal University of Minas Gerais (FAE/UFMG), has organized the series of webinars entitled FUNDEB and educational inequalities to discuss these changes in monitoring education in the country.
