Behind the worrying #OutOfSchool numbers lies another story: education access has expanded. Since 2000, the increase in enrolment is equivalent to 25+ additional children entering school every minute. Read the 2026 UNESCO @GEMReport: bit.ly/gemreport2026 #YourStoryCounts

An estimated 6 million pregnant and young mothers aged 10–19 were out of school in sub-Saharan Africa in 2024, and fewer than 5% of pregnant and parenting girls in the region return to school. @UNESCO's new #GEMReport shows that while gender parity in enrolment has been achieved globally from pre-primary through upper secondary education, early marriage and motherhood are major obstacles for girls to complete their education.

Young people under 30 make up more than half of the world’s population, yet their role in shaping education policy remains limited. A new report from @GEMReport & @UNYouthAffairs shows that only 1 in 3 governments has formal mechanisms to involve youth and students in education policymaking. 🔗 unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/4822… #LeadWithYouth

Young people around the world are shaping global movements to build justice, trust, and lasting peace worldwide. #YouthDay Last month, @GrassrootsJN member Diana Imbert joined other youth advocates for a panel discussion at the High-Level Political Forum in New York City. They explored the role of young people as co-architects of SDG 4.7, SDG 16, and the Youth, Peace and Security agenda. Diana drew on her experience as Co-Executive Director of @DefyingLegal to explain how non-formal education can help societies address fairness, build trust in justice institutions, and develop the civic agency people need to shape the systems affecting their lives. For more on the connection between #justice and #education, read our recent report with @GEMReport: shorturl.at/Fs1Rz #LearnForJustice #PowerOfLearning #InternationalYouthDay

Resilient education systems need resilient financing. As fiscal pressures grow, protecting education budgets is essential. But how resources are allocated matters just as much. Equity must remain at the centre. 🔗 Explore the data and what it means for progress: unesco.org/gem-report/en/pub… @‌GEMReport

While education needs are on the rise, aid to education is declining. A new @GEMReport paper warns that countries most dependent on external funding are being hit hardest—making strong, predictable financing more critical than ever. #FundEducation bit.ly/4vyS7n0

Girls' access to education in Africa has improved: the share of girls out of school fell from 47% in 2000 to 28% in 2024. The new GEM Report & FAWE paper shows that reducing education costs boosts participation 👇 bit.ly/2026-gender-africa #GEMReport #YourStoryCounts

Non-formal education can help people better understand and defend their rights. A recent @GEMReport, Namati, and @GrassrootsJN paper shows that legal literacy programs have helped women assert their rights in Bangladesh, Ghana, and Guatemala. #LearnForJustice: bit.ly/2026justice-report

Four years after the landmark #TransformingEducation Summit convened by the @UN Secretary-General, #UNESCO is bringing together education leaders from around the world to identify solutions to the global education financing crisis. As new figures show that international aid to education could fall by up to 30% between 2023 and 2027, and that 113 countries spend more on debt servicing than on education, @UNESCO is publishing concrete recommendations to help countries break the debt trap and invest in education.
