Education<br />
<strong>Plan</strong>’s goal:<br />
Children <strong>and</strong> young people claim <strong>and</strong><br />
enjoy their right to education.<br />
Education is one of the most powerful tools in breaking the cycle<br />
of poverty. Every child has the right to education, but many are<br />
excluded because of poverty, gender, disability, language or<br />
cultural barriers, or geographical remoteness.<br />
We work to promote free <strong>and</strong> equal access to a quality education<br />
for all children, including in emergencies, as well as access to<br />
learning <strong>and</strong> life-skills training to enable young people to reach<br />
their potential.<br />
We promote child-friendly learning environments by building<br />
the skills of teachers, strengthening community engagement in<br />
school governance, supporting culturally relevant, gender-sensitive<br />
teaching materials <strong>and</strong> offering essential life-skills training.<br />
We work with governments <strong>and</strong> local authorities to improve<br />
legislation <strong>and</strong> public policy on education <strong>and</strong> engage in local,<br />
national <strong>and</strong> international advocacy to promote quality education<br />
for all.<br />
