Santo Domingo.- The Minister of Education of the Dominican Republic, Luis Miguel De Camps, will participate this week in a high-level agenda at the headquarters of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (Unesco), in Paris, France, where the main global challenges in terms of access, equity and digital transformation of education systems will be addressed.
The agenda includes her participation in the annual meeting of the Global Education Coalition, on March 23 and 24, as well as in the launch of the Global Education Monitoring Report (GEM Report 2026), on March 25, one of the main international instruments for analysis on the state of education globally.
This report, coordinated by UNESCO, focuses its edition on access and equity, addressing challenges related to school permanence, the inclusion of vulnerable populations, and the reduction of educational gaps associated with socioeconomic, territorial, and disability factors.
Within the framework of this agenda, the minister will participate in ministerial dialogue spaces with educational authorities from different countries, where he will share the experience of the Dominican Republic in the process of transforming the education system, with emphasis on the integration of digital skills, the strengthening of educational management and the connection between education, innovation and productive development.

The Dominican Republic's participation in these spaces is framed within the Ministry of Education's roadmap, which promotes a transformation of the education system aimed at improving learning, strengthening the employability of young people, and preparing the country for the challenges of an increasingly knowledge-based economy. Within that framework, digital transformation constitutes a cross-cutting axis of this management, aimed at integrating technological capabilities, strengthening educational management, and modernizing the system as a whole. With this agenda, the country reaffirms its commitment to a more inclusive, equitable, and connected education with development, while consolidating its presence in the global conversation about the future of education.
