SDG: Goal 4
“In some parts of the world, students are going to school every day. It’s their normal life. But in other parts of the world, we are starving for education…it’s like a precious gift. It’s like a diamond…” — Malala Yousafzai
On September 25th, 193 world leaders will commit to 17 Global Goals to achieve three extraordinary things in the next 15 years. End extreme poverty. Fight inequality & injustice. Fix climate change. The Global Goals for sustainable development could get these things done. In all countries. For all people.
If the goals are going to work, everyone needs to know about them. You can’t fight for your rights if you don’t know what they are. You can’t convince world leaders to do what needs to be done if you don’t know what you’re convincing them to do. If the goals are famous, they won’t be forgotten.
We can be the first generation to end extreme poverty, the most determined generation in history to end injustice and inequality, and the last generation to be threatened by climate change.
Of all the goals that will help us achieve these three things, one is the most important. #Goal4 — Quality Education. We’re pretty serious about making 12 years of education for all children a reality. And now you can help, too.
Malala shared a selfie with the number 4 to tell the world that she’s supporting The Global Goals and that #Goal4 — Quality Education — is her goal.
So, it’s your turn to do the same. We want you to tell everyone that #Goal4 is the goal you care most about because you know that education for every child is the key to solving some of the world’s biggest problems.
Join Malala’s fight for 12 years of free, quality secondary education for every boy and girl. Share a selfie with the #4 — just like this — and let the world know that you support #Goal4.
