• difficults the students ability to learn

• it can cause an infinite cycle of poverty and faill (someone born poor doesnt have an acces to quality education--> That person does not grow knowledge-->that person is less likely to get a job--> that person has kids who are born poor-->the cycle repeats)

• it may obstruct the countries economic growth

How does it affect students?

• " it would take 15-year-old Brazilian students 75 years, at their current rate of improvement, to reach wealthier countries’ average scores in math, and more than 260 years in reading."

• 80% of indigenous people don't demostrate basic reading, math and general culture knowledge

Examples:

• Poverty

• instability (poitical, natural disasters,)

• Discrimination (difficult acces for the disabled, gender)

• 9/10 students were not able to go to school

• "Online learning allows teachers to maintain a classroom-like environment for students, to send assignments and receive completed work to be assessed. It also permits teachers to maintain daily communication with students, checking not only their educational progress but also their well-being."

• 50% of students dont have acces to a computer

• in sub saharan countries (Africa) 89% of people couldn't have acces to on-line learning and missed out a lot of information

• in most countries with a low economy, the students education delayed 2 years

The main target is to ensure free, high-quality primary and secondary education for everyone, regardless of culture, race, social status, gender, etc.

There are various other important targets such as: Eliminating discrimination, promoting education for sustainable developement and global citizenship

According to the UN, "Education liberates the intellect, unlocks the imagination and is fundamental for self-respect. It is the key to prosperity and opens a world of opportunities, making it possible for each of us to contribute to a progressive, healthy society. Learning benefits every human being and should be available to all."
