Happy New Year from GCE-US! We are grateful for your vital support and partnership to ensure all children access high-quality, inclusive education in 2022 and beyond.

Upcoming Opportunities

The newly released 2021/2 UNESCO Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report explores topics related to "Non-state actors in education."

• At our next GCE-US coalition meeting on February 1 at 9 AM ET, we look forward to facilitating a discussion on the Global Education Monitoring Report and other topics to further unpack these issues. Register to join us here!

Please take action by contacting your members of Congress in support of global education: Now is a critical time to reach your Senators and Representatives, before funding levels are finalized.

We are grateful to our donors, supporters, coalition members, and partners!

Together, we made significant strides in 2021 towards promoting access to quality, inclusive education for all children and youth. Thank you for your partnership, support, and advocacy! Read the GCE-US 2021 Annual Highlights Report here.
