Voices of Youth: Why leaders must #AnswerTheCall for education

Education is the most powerful tool we have to create a better, fairer world. But for too long, millions of children and young people around the globe have been denied this essential right.

On this International Day of Education, we hear from the passionate voices of youth leaders who are calling on world leaders to #AnswerTheCall.

Their message is clear: it's time for governments to step up and invest in education, not just as a fundamental human right, but as the foundation for a brighter future for all. In their own words, they share why funding education is not just a choice—it’s an urgent necessity.

 

The call has been made. It’s now in the hands of world leaders to respond with action. As these youth leaders remind us, the future depends on the choices we make today.

It's time to ensure every child has the opportunity to learn, grow and contribute to a better world.

Will you answer the call? The future is waiting.
