THE ROLE OF LEARNING BASED ON COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF WOMEN TO ACHIEVE THE GOALS OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
The study aimed to identify the role of learning based on community development in the development of women to achieve the goals of sustainable development, by studying the case of women beneficiaries of comprehensive scientific and electronic literacy programs implemented by UNESCO and the UNESCO Chair for Women in Science and Technology. The study was based on several assumptions, namely: -Adopting education and learning projects based on community development by targeting the segment of women helps achieve sustainable development goals. - Expanding women's participation in education and learning projects based on community development helps bridge the gaps associated with development needs in the community. - Benefiting from local materials and products in education and learning projects based on community development facilitates the effective contribution of women to development as a result of the availability of their productive needs from the local environment. The research used the descriptive method, which works to describe information and facts and analyze the content in a scientific and objective manner. It also used the case study method, which is based on studying the case of the beneficiaries of learning projects based on community development. The study concluded the following conclusions: 1. UNESCO projects have contributed to reducing the scientific and electronic illiteracy rate among women, which has contributed to achieving Goal 4 of the Sustainable Development Goals. 2. The projects contributed to reducing poverty and hunger among women, which contributed to achieving Goal 1 and Goal 2 for sustainable development. 3. The projects contributed to increasing production in many products, which had a positive impact on development, which contributed to achieving Goal 8 for sustainable development.. 4. The projects did not contribute to achieving the goal 13th of a healthy environment due to the lack of implementation of programs that contribute to environmental sanitation, such as waste recycling programs and other similar programmes. 5. The use of local natural resources contributed to the facilitation and availability of production, which helped achieve the 12th goal of sustainable development. 6.Targeting women with education and training to provide job opportunities and increase income contributed to achieving Goal 3 and Goal 5 of sustainable development. The study also recommended the following: 1. The need for more learning programs based on community development. 2. Increasing focus on productive projects from natural resources with the latest technological developments in training. 3. The necessity of training on e-marketing skills for local products. 4.The necessity of training on canning and packaging skills for vegetables and fruits that are abundantly available in certain seasons in order to reduce the waste of natural resources. 5. Creating partnerships between state governments, civil society and international organizations to create national productive projects for the manufacture of natural resources by utilizing the skills and experiences of women beneficiaries and creating job opportunities for them. 6. The necessity to conduct programs contriuting to enviromental sanitation such as. waste recycling programs and other similar programmes.
