World Conference on Education for All

The World Conference on Education for All, held in 1990 in Jomtien, Thailand, aimed to address global education disparities and promote equitable access to quality education. It brought together governments, organizations, and experts who recognized education as a fundamental human right. The conference established key goals to ensure that all children and adults receive the education they need to improve their lives and communities. This initiative led to increased awareness and efforts worldwide to enhance educational opportunities, particularly for marginalized groups, ultimately shaping global educational policies and initiatives in the following decades.
