“While so many people are arguing that there is no need to be concerned about the future because humans will always have technology and innovation to get out of trouble. And while I agree that science holds the solutions to many of our future challenges, assuming that science will always be there when we need it is incredibly risky, especially if we can’t engage and inspire the younger generations, particularly young women and girls to pursue science.


The big fact is that the science base is as strong as the people in it.


But how will we be able to attract, train, and retain people, girls and boys, from all backgrounds, into different fields of sciences, if there is an acute shortage of teachers, particularly science teachers worldwide?...."

The Reality is:



Globally, the teaching profession is aging, as many teachers are retiring or will be retired.



The widespread severity of teacher shortages in Science and Mathematics suggests the need for more vital, energetic, and dynamic policies and action plans to address the recruitment and retention of teachers in these areas that are so linked to the development of competencies and skills in scientific fields and sustainable development.



"QUALITY EDUCATION, MEANS FIRST AND FOREMOST, QUALIFIED TEACHERS.


Talking about Education (i.e. SDG 4), which is the heart of achieving the Global Goals and 2030 Agenda, is meaningless if teachers are not at the center of the requirements of this right..."

FACTS



Based on Research Study title "The Global Status of Teachers and Teaching Profession" conducted by the Education International and The UNESCO Institute of Statistics eAtlas of Teachers:


Least respected profession



Only a few countries in the world identified teaching as the most respected profession.

Lack of supportive environments: Salary, Professional and Social aspects, etc.



Stereotyping



The reference to significant decline in the teaching profession receives deeper meaning when we compare it with the respondents’ view of its portrayal in the mass media.



Teaching Conditions



Teachers experience several conditions that render the schools, such as is the lack of access to adequate funding, equipment, materials, and -in many countries -infrastructure, access to water, or other related facilities.



Globally



Largest global academic teacher shortages are in the subjects of science and mathematics.



In Europe



In Europe, one-third of its countries have serious science teacher shortages and one-fifth have mathematics teacher shortages.



In Africa



In about one-fifth of the countries in Africa, teacher shortages are particularly severe in mathematics and science.
