Global Action Week for Education 2016
|
Global Action Week for Education is an annual worldwide campaign, organized by the Global Campaign for Education and actively supported by UNESCO to raise awareness on education and the commitments made by the international community to achieve the global education goal. "Failing to make adequate investments in education puts the fulfilment of the entire global agenda at risk," said UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova. This year, the campaign, which runs from April 24 to 30, focuses on the theme of education financing, under the slogan Fund the Future: Education Rights Now.

With the adoption of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda in 2015, the international community set an ambitious education goal by calling for inclusive and equitable quality education and lifelong learning opportunities for all by 2030. However, it is clear that the success of the education agenda cannot be realized without a significant and well-targeted increase in financing, particularly in those countries furthest from achieving quality education for all at all levels. |
