EdApp & UNITAR are embarking on a mission to increase access to free, high-quality and impactful education, through a new initiative, Educate All.
Adult education remains a global problem. In almost one-third of countries, fewer than 5% of adults aged 15 and above participate in education and learning programmes*.
Together, EdApp and UNITAR believe we can help empower and educate millions of learners around the world, notably providing access to those furthest behind, with limited opportunities.
We further believe we can encourage the community to help educate these learners, in turn, actively driving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development by strengthening the social, economic and environmental dimensions of sustainable development.
*UNESCO Global Report on Adult Education and Learning (GRALE), Dec 2019
In cooperation with UNITAR (the United Nations Institute for Training and Research), EdApp will provide access to a free global course library.
Together we believe we can help the community to not only actively contribute to the 2030 Agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but also help empower and educate millions of learners around the world, notably providing access to those furthest behind, with limited opportunities.
As part of the initiative, UNITAR and EdApp are inviting companies, not-for-profit organisations and thought leaders to make contributions to the modern, global content library on an ongoing basis.
The courseware will need to be created in our micro-lesson format, to be easily digestible and accessible to the wide range of audiences.
UNITAR will be contributing courseware to support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as gender equality, leadership, and entrepreneurship.
Contribution will be voluntary and for the benefit of the community.
