Children's rights: far from being a reality for everyone
On this new International Children's Rights Day, the grim reality is that, after more than 34 years of existence, children's rights are still a long way from being applied. Action Education is sounding the alarm and calling on France to make children's rights, and in particular the right to education for all, a priority of its international cooperation policy.

More than a billion people today cannot read or write: an unacceptable situation denounced by Action Education
The international NGO Action Education is sounding the alarm: more than 773 million people, two-thirds of them women, are illiterate, and 250 million children cannot read or write and are not in school.
Fundamental rights: young girls under threat
Rape, kidnapping, physical violence, forced marriages... these are just a few examples of the many deprivations and violations of children's rights to which young girls are subjected around the world. And their situation continues to worsen, particularly in crisis situations. On 11 October, International Girls' Rights Day, Action Education is sounding the alarm and reminding us of the urgent need to guarantee access to quality education for all. This year, the association is joining forces with Plan International and has co-signed a petition calling on governments to guarantee access to quality education for all.
Education, an essential weapon in the fight against climate change, is being neglected, according to the NGO Action Education
Natural disasters will claim around 150 million victims a year by 2030, an increase of 50% compared to 2018 (Source UN). The first victims of these crises are children, who are exposed to trauma and violations of their fundamental rights, including access to housing, safety, food and education. The international NGO Action Education is working to help the most vulnerable populations adapt to climate crises and to enable the youngest children to mitigate the effects of climate change, in particular through education for sustainable development.
When will the fundamental role of teachers be recognised?
On the occasion of World Teachers' Day (5 October), Action Education is calling on governments to recognise the fundamental role of teachers and to grant them salaries and working conditions commensurate with their mission and commitment.
