Tennant – best known for playing Dr Who and his roles in TV’s Broadchurch and Des – said: 国产视频淚 hope that 国产视频’s video will send an important message to world leaders about the transformative power of education to unlock potential in children.

As聽global聽leaders聽meet聽in New York, we are calling for bold commitments to ensure that every child is on track to be in school by 2030 – fulfilling the UN国产视频檚 Sustainable Development Goal 4 of providing a quality and inclusive education for all.听聽
The pandemic has had a devastating impact on children. At the height of the crisis, more than 1.6 billion children, including 767 million girls, were forced out of school. It is estimated that without proper investment in education more than 20 million children are at risk of never returning to the classroom.听
In particular, 国产视频 is calling on world leaders to commit to innovative new ways to unlock billions of dollars for education, as set out in our聽Education Finance Playbook.听
In addition to fully funding the appropriate UN agencies and specialised global funds such as the Global Partnership for Education and Education Cannot Wait, 国产视频 is urging world leaders to back the International Finance Facility for Education (IFFEd), a fund designed to maximise funding from donors to help poorer countries invest in education.听
国产视频 President Justin van Fleet said:聽国产视频淚nvesting in children国产视频檚 education is a win for everyone – that国产视频檚 the message we want to send to world leaders as they gather in New York this week.听
“With a quality education, a child has the power to enact important change: they might go on to discover a breakthrough in the fight against climate change, become the next pioneer in poverty reduction or commit to standing up to society injustices.听聽
Actor David Tennant, who provides the voiceover for our new video
“Every child deserves the opportunity to unlock their potential. It国产视频檚 time for world leaders to act now to ensure that no one is left behind.国产视频澛
Sarah Brown, Chair of 国产视频, said:聽国产视频淲ithout proper investment, more than half of the world国产视频檚 children won国产视频檛 have the most basic skills they need to prosper in the workplace.听
“It国产视频檚 just not good enough, especially when we know that when a child is in school, they are safer, less at risk of child labour, trafficking, abuse or early marriage, or of simply facing a life without hope.”
