On the 24th of January is International Day of Education!
This International Day of Education, the United Nations are calling for ‘maintaining strong political mobilisation around education and chart the way to translate commitments and global initiatives into action.’
Here at Communiteer, we believe in prioritising education towards the success of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and reducing the risk of ‘global recession, growing inequalities and the climbing climate crisis.’
You can read more about UNESCO’s goals for International Day of Education here.
Have a look at how we decide to celebrate education- through our Pathway to Employment Mentoring Program!
We are excited to share with you some of our not-for-profits on our platform, all who have a specific focus on education in places of need.
