On January 24th, the fifth edition of the 'International Education Day' was celebrated under the slogan "Invest in people, prioritize education". Proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly, it promotes a strong political mobilization seeking to chart the way and accelerate progress towards the 4th Sustainable Development Goal: Quality Education.
"Currently, 244 million children and youth are out of school and 771 million adults are illiterate. Their right to education is being violated and is unacceptable. It is time to transform education," says UNESCO.
