UNESCO aims to provide global leadership on teachers, their status, their professional training, their management and administration and key policy issues. The UNESCO/ILO Recommendations concerning the Status of Teachers provide the framework for UNESCO’s support. The Teacher Training Initiative for Sub-Saharan Africa (TTISSA) is a core initiative addressing key issues in the African context.
