SDG4 High-Level Steering Committee’s Key Messages for the Pact for the Future

Education is a fundamental human right and a public good. Quality education and lifelong learning provides individuals with knowledge, skills, and values to lead a meaningful and productive life, and thus it is essential for personal development, empowerment and wellbeing.

Education has a transformative power and drives progress across all Sustainable Development Goals. Investing more, more equitably and more efficiently in education transforms the future of humanity and the planet. The Pact for the Future must put education at its center.
