The Fitch Group x Social Shifters Global Education Challenge 2024 is designed to enable young people (18-30 years) to explore, start and grow ideas that support better access to free and high-quality education for all.
They are particularly interested in innovative solutions that:
- Broaden access to basic math and literacy skills
- Promote financial inclusion through education
- Provide education to remote and rural communities
- Eliminate gender disparities in education
The Education Challenge
Access to education is a basic human right enabling upward socio-economic mobility and an escape route from poverty. Yet 244 million children and young people are not in school and an estimated 70% of 10-year-olds are unable to understand simple written text. Education is in crisis. High rates of poverty, exclusion and gender inequality continue to hold millions back from learning.
Moreover, the pandemic further exposed the inequities in education access and quality, whilst violence, armed conflict, disasters and reversal of women’s rights have increased insecurity. It is now time to reimagine education in order to better meet the needs of children and young people everywhere.
