UNESCO is hosting an International symposium on the future of the right to education: Renewing global commitments and charting future direction on the occasion of World Human Rights Day, and to mark the 65th anniversary of the 1960 Convention against Discrimination in Education. The Symposium will also serve as the official closing of the 11th Consultation on the 1960 Convention and the launch of the 2025 global report on the Right to Education. It will provide a platform to take stock of progress, discuss ongoing and emerging challenges, and renew momentum around this fundamental human right.
