Abstract: Every child has the right to learn. Yet for far too many, that right remains unfulfilled. Poverty, environmental shocks, conflict, displacement, disability and discrimination continue to keep children out of school or stuck in classrooms without meaningful learning, or disrupt learning altogether. This is especially true for girls and other vulnerable children. In emergencies, education is often one of the first services disrupted and one of the last to recover. UNICEF is working to change this -- not only by delivering education services but by helping countries, especially low-income countries, to build stronger, more resilient education systems that provide inclusive learning for all children, in all contexts. At the heart of this work is the Global Education Thematic Fund, UNICEF's most strategic tool for advancing quality education at scale. Powered by flexible, multi-year contributions, the Fund enables UNICEF to work with agility, respond to emergencies, support national reform, scale what works, and integrate education across health, protection and social services. Investments to the Global Education Thematic Fund support a more inclusive, resilient and prosperous world for every child and have a transformative effect across multiple SDGs.
