Teachers, students, education campaigners, and members of the public are invited to take part in Global Action Week (GAW) events happening all around the world. This annual awareness-raising campaign is organized by the Global Campaign for Education (GCE), a civil society network that aims to end the global education crisis. This year, the campaign will focus on the theme of "Education and Disability" under the slogan "Equal Right, Equal Opportunity." This event will highlight the profound challenges faced by persons with disabilities in realizing their right to education.
