About CEART - Who we are

CEART is composed of 12 appointed members. The ILO and UNESCO appoint 6 members each for renewable mandates of six years. The members act in their personal capacity.

The criteria for selection include: independence from government, employer or trade union organisations and competence in the Recommendation's core fields. Furthermore, there is an attempt to achieve a balance of geographic regions, of education systems, of spheres of expertise and of gender.
