The Regional Center for Educational Planning The Regional Center for Educational Planning (RCEP) was established in 2003 under an agreement signed by the government of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). RCEP is a UNESCO Category 2 Center entrusted to build national and regional capacities in the field of educational planning, policies, leadership, and dissemination of related knowledge in Arab and Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. RCEP facilitates information-sharing and fosters collaborative initiatives with key national, regional, and international education stakeholders to support SDG 4. The conference falls under RCEP's second strategic objective to "produce and disseminate knowledge in support of education policies to enable planning of educational systems."
