It provides guidelines for the development, adaptation and/ or revision of national documents relating to the education and professional development of the teaching profession. These guidelines sumarise knowledge, qualities, commitment to human rights and social justice, as well as other values that teachers need to have in order to ensure that their students are prepared for life in the twenty-first century. The publication is a comprehensive regional document that can help bridging the gap between education policies for teachers and their practice.
