Governments around the world have failed millions of children and adolescents who are not attending school, 15 years after they adopted ambitious goals to ensure all children complete primary school.
Based on nearly two decades of research in over 40 countries, a new report by Human Rights Watch illustrates how human rights violations, including school fees, widespread violence, abuse and harassment in schools, ongoing discrimination against children with disabilities, minorities and LGBT children, and unfavourable school policies against girls, keep many children and adolescents out of school.
Please join us on Monday 13 June for a lunchtime seminar to learn more about the challenges ahead and how governments can put an end to these discriminatory and harmful practices.
