The Education & Academia Stakeholder Group (EASG) invites you to an HLPF 2022 Side Event. The side-event focuses on the enabling potential of the right to education and how SDG4 is a lever for the entire Sustainable Development Agenda.

The event is planned for its participants to share public policy suggestions and recommendations, not only to mitigate the pandemic and any crisis-related context that threatens education but mainly to identify the interventions governments should take to protect education for all in emergency contexts.

The interaction between SDG4 and the other sustainable development goals is the pragmatic basis of the dialogue that this side-event will promote.
