Abstract
Knowledge is power and a rise in its quantity and quality can unleash an immense potentialDescription
The UN’s 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda is composed of 17 goals: actions needed to transform the world we live in, fostering sustainability, equal rights and the end of poverty, along with a concrete, global effort to tackle climate change.Education holds an important place among the Sustainable Development Goals. In todays’ world, ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education is often a daring task. Poverty, gender and social inequality, conflict and population displacement are only a few of the obstacles. Women and people with disabilities are often excluded from any kind of schooling – a condition that perpetuates their social vulnerability.
Education issues are so relevant that the UN has set an early target date of 2020 for the expansion of global scholarships available in African and developing countries with a specific focus on technical, scientific and engineering studies: an urgent initiative that needs immediate attention.
