Education For All
Resumen
Education is the one investment that quietly shapes almost every other global issue. A girl who finishes secondary school is healthier, earns more, marries later and is far more likely to send her own children to school. Yet UNESCO reported in 2024 that around 251 million children and youth were out of school, a number revised upward to about 272 million in 2025 as population estimates were updated. Progress toward Sustainable Development Goal 4, the global promise of inclusive, quality education for all by 2030, has almost stalled.
In Global Perspectives you do not memorise these figures, you learn to think with them. This note shows you how to weigh personal, national and global perspectives on education, to test a striking statistic before you trust it, to argue both sides of real debates such as whether schooling should be free, and to reason your way toward courses of action you could actually defend in a report or a team project.
Objetivos
