200,000 voices. 194 countries. One shared vision. 🌍
The Global Youth Survey on #EducationBeyond2030 is now completed! 🎉
With 2030 around the corner, UNESCO and the SDG 4 High-Level Steering Committee are gathering the views of all education actors on what education beyond 2030 should look like.
They started with youth, ensuring that their voices serve as the foundation for every conversation that follows.
Through a Global Youth Survey, regional and global consultations, 200,000 youth and students from 194 countries shared:
💭 Their visions for the future of the world and societies
💡 Their proposals to transform education
🤝 Their personal and collective commitments to make it happen
Thank you to every young person who participated, and to the teachers, educators and partners who helped ensure their voices were heard.
What comes next? These insights will be compiled into a Youth Agenda for Education Beyond 2030, to be drafted in Tokyo.
