Education is a human right!

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights calls for free and compulsory elementary education. The Convention on the Rights of the Child, adopted in 1989, stipulates that countries shall make higher education accessible to all.

Education is key to sustainable development

The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development recognizes that education is essential for the success of all 17 of its goals. Sustainable Development Goal 4 aims to “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all” by 2030.
