Reaching the marginalized

Education systems in many of the world's poorest countries are now experiencing the aftermath of the global economic downturn.

The 2010 Education for All Global Monitoring Report, argues that the crisis could create a lost generation of children whose life chances will have been irreparably damaged by a failure to protect their right to education.

The Report examines who these children are and why they are being left behind, and looks at concrete solutions for making sure that no children are excluded from schooling.
