World Education Day - 24 January

The 24th of January is World Education Day!

Today, 258 million children and youth still do not attend school; 617 million children and adolescents cannot read and do basic math; less than 40% of girls in sub-Saharan Africa complete lower secondary school and some 4 million children and youth refugees are out of school.

Education is critical and a human right for them too!

Because "Knowledge and the application of that knowledge makes a person less likely to be: taken advantage of, abused, lied to, overlooked, marginalized, enslaved."
