Why it Matters
1 out of 3 children worldwide never sets foot in a classroom.
Universal education has proven to be the most effective means of eliminating endemic poverty; every year of school increases an individual’s earning capacity by 10 percent or more. The covid pandemic has deepened the global learning crisis. More than 24 million learners, from pre-primary to university level, are at risk of never returning to school.
