250 Million Reasons to Invest in Education: The Case for Investment

Today more children are in school around the world than ever before. But despite efforts to ensure all children are learning the basics, 250 million children are still not able to read or write by the time they reach grade 4. The poorest countries around the world are experiencing a crisis in education, with 57 million children still without access to school.

This new paper from the Global Partnership for Education explains why investing in education is critical, shows GPE's progress and results since 2002, and demonstrates what can be achieved with US$3.5 billion in new funding during the Second Replenishment period (2015 to 2018).
