Nothing changes without pressure. That鈥檚 why we鈥檙e building the world鈥檚 biggest petition to demand that all children around the world are in school and learning.
罢丑别听 is being driven by young people 鈥� including A World at School鈥檚 500 Global Youth Ambassadors in 85 countries. Now we want young people across the globe 鈥� and everyone else 鈥� to join us in this record-breaking effort.
World leaders promised to get every child into school by the end of 2015 and the deadline to help the 58 million who aren鈥檛 is fast approaching.
We need to collect more than 24 million signatures to deliver next year.听Four of our partners 鈥� Avaaz, Educationa International, World Evangelical Alliance and Idara-e-Taleem-o-Aagahi听鈥� have already commited to collect 12 million signatures.
