The Education Commission was set up last September to help the world develop a plan for achieving the ambitious Sustainable Development Goal on Education (SDG 4) which calls on the world to “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.” This is an enormous challenge. More than 124 million children and youth do not have access to primary and secondary schools. And of the roughly 590 million that are in school, some 250 million—roughly two in five—are failing to learn the basics of reading, writing and math.
The Commission would like young people to help define this vision.
The Education Youth Video Challenge invites young people ages 13-30 to create a video of 30 seconds or less answering one or both of these questions:
How can education best prepare you for your future?
What would your ideal school of the future look like?
