International Commission on the Futures of Education, Reimagining our futures together: a new social contract for education, Unesco, Parigi 2021, p. 2
Education can be seen in terms of a social contract […]. The starting point is a shared vision of the public purposes of education. This contract consists of the foundational and organizational principles that structure education systems, as well as the distributed work done to build, maintain and refine them. […] The new social contract for education must unite us around collective endeavours and provide the knowledge and innovation needed to shape sustainable and peaceful futures for all anchored in social, economic and environmental justice.
