Gender and Education in Kenya: Alignment to Achievement of Vision 2030 and Sustainable Development Goals
Résumé
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is a landmark agreement negotiated and approved by the 193 Member States of the United Nations. Comprised of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), 169 targets and 332 indicators, it aims to address the economic, social, environmental and political dimensions of sustainable development in a comprehensive and integrated way. The SDG Agenda is clear that achieving gender equality is not only an important goal in and of itself but also a catalyst for achieving a sustainable future for all. Education plays a pivotal role in contributing to the human resource development and to the nation’s general economic development in today’s globalizing context. Vision 2030 places great emphasis on the link between education and the labour market; the need to create entrepreneurial skills and competences; and the need to strengthen partnerships with the private sector. This has considerable importance for the structure and focus of the education system and curriculum. Keywords: Gender, Education, Alignment, Achievement, Vision 2030 and Sustainable Development Goals DOI: 10.7176/JEP/14-27-09 Publication date: September 30 th 2023
