UNESCO has released Key findings of the 2015 EFA Global Monitoring Report (GMR) "Education for All 2000-2015: Achievements and Challenges," which has tracked progress on these goals for the past 15 years. Only half of all countries have achieved the most watched goal of universal primary enrolment. According to UNESCO, "An extra $22 billion a year is needed on top of already ambitious government contributions in order to ensure we achieve the new education targets now being set for the year 2030."
