Mobilising political leadership to accelerate quality education for all
The International Parliamentary Network for Education (IPNEd) works with individual parliamentarians along with groups of parliamentarians at the national, regional and global levels.
Political commitment to practical action for education
Education lights every stage of the journey to a better life. It is essential for the realisation of individual potential, national economic growth, social development and for fostering global citizenship.
In 2015, the international community committed to include a goal on education, SDG 4, among the 17 Sustainable Development Goals to be achieved by 2030. The commitment was to ‘ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all’.
With less than ten years to go, that promise is at serious risk.
