国际艺术教育周
2011年，第36届联合国教科文组织大会（第36/C55号决议）宣布5月第4周为国际艺术教育周。
艺术，及其包含的多样性，是为促进个体充分发展而开展的全面教育的重要组成部分。如今，艺术教育所倡导的技能、价值观和行为比以往任何时候都更为重要。这些能力——创造力、协作能力和解决问题的想象力——孕育了复原力，培养了对文化多样性和表达自由的欣赏，以及创新和批判性思维能力。作为最高意义上的对话载体，艺术促进了我们文化多元、相互关联的社会中的包容与宽容。
艺术使我们凝聚在一起。一幅画、一件工艺品、一段古老的音乐，都充分展示了人类文明的历史及其相互间的联系。它让我们感受并理解是什么将人类在文化和表达多样性中联结在一起，从而为我们光明和可持续的未来做出贡献。
艺术意识可以从幼时获得并贯穿一生。我们坚信创造力和艺术、以及相关学习有助于建设繁荣和平的社会。因而，教科文组织鼓励其成员国在学校内外支持开展艺术教育。艺术教育是培养子孙后代有能力改变其所继承世界的关键。它通过强调文化特性与其他文化间的联系以促进文化特性的活力，从而推动共同遗产的建设。它有助于为我们全球化的世界培养宽容和有活力的公民。
教科文组织在全球弘扬艺术和教育的力量

随着世界各地开始摆脱新冠疫情的影响，教科文组织2020年国际艺术教育周将聚焦人类创造力的惊人力量和强大韧性。
国际艺术教育周于每年5月的第四周举行，它在今年又有了新的意义，因为全球90%的学生（16亿）[1]因学校停课而受到影响；博物馆、剧院和电影院等文化机构和遗产地被迫关闭，艺术家们正艰难地维持生计。
艺术教育作为全面教育重要组成部分的地位空前凸显。艺术教育可以提升学习效果，帮助学习者培养新的技能。在危机时期，艺术教育意义尤其重大，即使是在居家隔离的情况下，它也能帮助激发创造力，提供心理支持，并在人与社区之间建立联系。
艺术教育对学习者也有深远、长久的益处。它有助于满足儿童多样化的学习需求，为终身学习奠定基础同时促进文化多样性，其中包括学习效果的提升和新技能的获得，使各个年龄段的学习者都能从中受益。音乐、戏剧、舞蹈、视觉艺术和其他艺术学科的教育可以培养学习者的韧性、自信和幸福感。艺术教育能激发学生的好奇心、灵感、创造力和对多样性的尊重。它还可以利用数字平台，通过远程优质教育支持儿童的发展。
教科文组织将通过其专门的网页收集全球各地在艺术教育方面的各种良好实践、方法、教学工具及活动，以帮助所有参与者就这一重要议题进行思考并采取行动。参与这一活动的还有教科文组织连接182个国家11500多所学校的“联系学校网络”，以及在世界各地拥有300万成员的“世界艺术教育联盟”。
教科文组织支持两种形式的艺术教育：学习艺术（视觉和表演艺术的教学和学习）和通过艺术进行学习（将艺术融入教育以改善和加强学习）。艺术教育还横向促进了多个可持续发展目标（SDGs）的实现，特别是关于优质教育的可持续发展目标4、关于性别平等的可持续发展目标5，以及通过文化和创造力推动关于增加体面工作和就业机会的可持续发展目标8。其缓解冲突和建设和平之精神与可持续发展目标16一致。

International Arts Education Week According to the decision of the 36th session of UNESCO’s General Conference in 2011 (Resolution 36/C55), the 4th week of May was proclaimed as the International Arts Education Week. Art, in all its diversity, is an essential component of a comprehensive education for the full development of the individual. Today, the skills, values and behaviours promoted by arts education are more paramount than ever. These competencies - creativity, collaboration, and imaginative problem solving - develop resiliency, nurture appreciation of cultural diversity and freedom of expressions, and cultivate innovation and critical thinking skills. As a vector of dialogue in the loftiest sense, art speeds up social inclusion and tolerance in our multicultural, connected societies. Art brings us closer together. A painting, an artefact, a piece of ancestral music speaks volumes about the history of civilizations and the ties that bind them. It makes us to feel and to understand what unites humanity in the diversity of its cultures and expressions and thus contributing to our bright and sustainable future. This awareness of art can be acquired from an early age and maintained throughout life. It is with the conviction that creativity and the arts, and learning about them, contribute to the building of prosperous and peaceful societies that UNESCO encourages its Member States to support arts education, at school and beyond. Arts education is a key to training generations capable of reinventing the world that they have inherited. It supports the vitality of cultural identities by emphasizing their links with other cultures, thus contributing to the construction of a shared heritage. It helps to form tolerant and dynamic citizens for our globalizing world.
UNESCO celebrates the power of art and education across the globe
As the world begins to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, UNESCO is spotlighting the incredible power and resilience of human creativity during the 2020 International Arts Education Week.
The annual event, which falls every fourth week of May, takes on new meaning this year, as 90 percent of the world's student population, or 1.6 billion learners[1], are affected by school closures; heritage sites and cultural institutions such as museums, theatres and cinemas are closed, and artists are struggling to sustain their livelihoods.
More than ever, arts education is being recognized as a key part of a comprehensive education. Arts education advances learning outcomes and helps learners build new skills. In times of crisis, arts education is particularly valuable, inspiring creativity, even in confinement, providing psychological support, and building connections between people and communities.
Arts education also has deep, long-term benefits for learners. It helps to meet the diverse learning needs of children, paves the way for life-long learning and fosters cultural diversity, which include advanced learning outcomes and the acquisition of new skills, benefiting learners of all ages. Music, drama, dance, the visual arts and education in other artistic disciplines builds resilience, self-confidence and well-being. It stimulates curiosity, inspiration, creativity and respect for diversity. It can also support child development through quality education at a distance, using digital platforms.
UNESCO will capture, through its dedicated webpage, a wide range of good practices, methodologies and pedagogical tools and activities taking place across the globe on arts education, to assist all the stakeholders in their reflection and action on this important topic. Taking part as well are UNESCO's Associated Schools Network, which connects more than 11,500 institutions in 182 countries, and the World Alliance for Arts Education, with 3 million members around the world.
UNESCO supports two forms of arts education: learning the arts (teaching and learning of the visual and performing arts) and learning through the arts (integrating arts into education to improve and enhance learning). Arts education also enhances, in a cross-cutting manner, the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG4 on quality education, SDG 5 on gender equality, SDG8 on enhancing opportunities for decent work and employment through culture and creativity, and conflict mitigation and peace-building, in the spirit of SDG 16.
