UNESCO: UK National Commission for UNESCO :: Education for All
Commendable progress has been made in achieving quality basic education for all since the MDGs were set in 2000.
Despite these notable achievements, the international community is still not on track to deliver on the promise of quality basic education for all by 2015.
The participants noted the commendable progress that has been made in achieving quality basic education for all since the Millennium Development Goals were set in 2000.
This year, the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL) is marking the occasion with a variety of activities whose main purpose is to promote tolerance, equity and social justice through access to quality basic education and lifelong learning.
However, progress has been insufficient to deliver on the international commitment to provide quality basic education for all children, young people and adults: 67 million primary school age children are out of school and 796 million adults are still illiterate.
Despite the coordinated efforts of the Member States of UNESCO, millions of young girls and boys are still deprived of basic rights, such as access to education, basic quality of life and dignified work, preventing them from participating fully in their society.
This reflects the historical fact of lacking access and quality of basic education in those areas.
Recommendations for implementing the national assessment were made and many ideas about the right to basic education, regional cooperation and partnerships, youth, early childhood development, quality of education, the post 2015 education agenda and other important topics were discussed.
