These guides have been prepared by UNESCO, as part of its programme of support to governments and educational institutions in implementation of the UNESCO OER Recommendation.
These Guidelines cover Action Area 4 of the Recommendation: nurturing the creation of sustainability models for DER. They provide: a description/overview of the recommendations; an introduction to the specificities addressed in the implementation of Action Area 4; a matrix of actions recommended for governments and institutions to implement each point of Action Area 4; a discussion on the specificities related to Action Area 4; and examples of good practice (from different regions and contexts) in the implementation of Action Area 4. The Guidelines offer advice on how to operationalize Action Area 4 of the Recommendation. They are not prescriptive, but aim to offer suggestions for activities, as well as background on the specificities for the Action Area. Users are encouraged to contextualize the elements of these Guidelines as appropriate for their specific national and institutional contexts.

Public perceptions of the value of postsecondary education continue their downward slide, placing institutions in the position of having to demonstrate their worth and find solutions to declining enrollments. Data and analytics capabilities continue to evolve, introducing new opportunities and new risks to the institution. Chief among these capabilities, generative AI promises to change teaching and learning in ways many of us have yet to fully understand or prepare for.
For this year’s teaching and learning Horizon Report, expert panelists’ discussions highlighted and wrestled with these present and looming challenges for higher education. This report summarizes the results of those discussions and serves as one vantage point on where our future may be headed.
