'Education for All'

| Redactie

Since its creation in 1945, UNESCO has worked to improve education worldwide, believing it to be key to social and economic development. One of their global movements is `Education for All', an international effort to provide every boy and girl in the developing world with a full, good-quality, free and compulsory primary school education. The World Bank has supported education in developing countries since 1963. During this period it has transferred more than $41 billion in loans and credits for education. From 2003 to 2005, the European Commission contributed €25 million to schools in Tanzania. The UN Millennium Development Goal includes universal primary education by 2015.
