This year’s Global Action Week of the campaign, 21-27 April, puts the spotlight on the importance of well-trained teachers.
In total, 132 million children are out of primary and lower secondary school. One third of all children who do not attend primary school are children with disabilities. No access to school means that these children won’t have a chance to learn, won’t be able to get decent work when they grow up or live a healthy and independent life.
