19. UN TRANSFORMING EDUCATION SUMMIT
An urgent political imperative for our collective
future
Education is a fundamental human right. It has long held a special place
in the hearts and minds of people across the world, and for good reason.
Throughout history, it has been a source of personal dignity and
empowerment and a driving force for the advancement of social,
economic, political, and cultural development. Yet today, beset by
inequalities and struggling to adjust to the needs of the 21st century,
education is in crisis. The impacts of this crisis play out over time and
often go unseen. But they are profound and will be felt for decades to
come. If we are to transform our world by 2030 as envisaged by the
Sustainable Development Goals, then the international community must
give this crisis the attention it deserves. We must respond decisively,
with conviction, imagination and in solidarity to transform education.
Informed by an extensive and inclusive preparatory process, we offer
this vision statement to Member States and the global public to support
our joint efforts towards that transformation, to contribute to the
upcoming Summit of the Future, and as a manifesto for collective action.

20. UN TRANSFORMING EDUCATION SUMMIT
An urgent political imperative for our collective
future
• Education today is in turmoil. More than 90 % of the world’s
children have had their education interrupted by COVID-19 — the
largest disruption of education systems in history. For many
students, especially girls and young women, this break may
become permanent, with potential consequences for their future
and for future generations that follow. The pandemic has also
exposed large disparities not only between countries, but
particularly between different learner groups within countries.
• The Transforming Education Summit was convened in response to
a global crisis in education – one of equity and inclusion, quality
and relevance. Often slow and unseen, this crisis is having a
devastating impact on the futures of children and youth
worldwide.
• The Transforming Education Summit is a key initiative of Our
Common Agenda launched by UN Secretary-General, Antonio
Guterres, in September 2021. The Summit took place during the
77th session of the UN General Assembly and was convened by the
Secretary-General with a view to elevating education to the top of
the global political agenda and to mobilize action, ambition,
solidarity and solutions to recover pandemic-related learning
losses and sow the seeds to transform education in a rapidly
changing world.
