Education is one of the foundational commitments of the 1995 Copenhagen Summit and a pillar of poverty eradication, inequality reduction and social integration which are central to the Doha summit. Education is not simply a service; it is a legal right and public good that creates possibilities for empowerment, inclusivity, and upward mobility and a cross-cutting enabler that underpins WSSD2’s broader ambitions.
This virtual panel discussion will take place during the World Social Summit for Development (WSSD) to explore strategies for realizing the right to education through strategic litigation, the localization of international human rights standards, and collaboration with social movements. It will focus on tackling educational inequality and ensuring that no one is left behind.
