Global crisis

The education crisis is a pressing global issue, affecting millions of children and adults worldwide. It is characterized by inadequate access to quality education, resulting in significant learning gaps, high dropout rates, and a shortage of skilled workers. This crisis has far-reaching consequences, including perpetuating poverty and undermining social mobility. In many countries, schools lack essential resources, such as trained teachers, textbooks, and technology, while discrimination, conflict, and poverty force countless children out of school.

The Covid-19 pandemic has revelaed inequalities in access to technology. Investing in education infrastructure, teacher training, and inclusive learning programmes can help address the crisis. Additionally digital learning platforms and community-based initiatives, can expand access to quality education.
