Education above all
Launching the UN’s first ever ‘Day to Protect
Education from Attack’
Every day thousands of children have their education destroyed through deliberate attack; sexual exploitation, murder, kidnapping, military occupation. Education Above All is trying to stop this. They needed the attention of world leaders, who don’t see the issue as a top priority.
Rather than detailing the atrocities that occur to children and their education every day, which world leaders are already aware of, we asked a question - what fills the voids when education is destroyed? We told the story of a single boy on his journey from school child to child soldier.
