Leave No One Behind: Gender Equality in Transforming Education Summit National Commitments

The Transforming Education Summit was convened in response to a global crisis in education – one of equity and inclusion, quality and relevance.

This paper applies a gender lens to the national statements of commitments made by countries during the Summit. It considers the scope of commitments to gender equality and gender- transformative education, common gender themes and considerations emerging across commitments, and notable gaps.

It aims to inform future actions by the Global Platform to Drive Leadership and Accountability for Gender Equality and Girls’ and Women’s Empowerment in and through Education, and support to country action to transform education systems to advance gender equality.
