About the event

UN Day of Education, observed annually on 24 January, is a global celebration established by the United Nations to highlight the vital role of education in fostering peace, sustainable development, and human dignity. Proclaimed in 2018, this day underscores education as a fundamental human right and a cornerstone for achieving equality, economic growth, and global resilience. It calls for renewed commitments to ensure inclusive, equitable quality education and lifelong learning opportunities for all.


On this day, UNESCO’s EE-Net (Education for Sustainable Development Network) hosts a special event convening key stakeholders—including policymakers, educators, experts, and members—to collaborate on advancing educational agendas. The event serves as a platform to share innovative practices, address challenges, and strengthen partnerships aimed at transforming education systems worldwide. Aligning with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, the gathering reinforces the urgency of collective action to unlock education’s transformative power for individuals and societies.
