 at a lack of attention to education quality and a failure to reach the mar
 ginalized have contributed to a learning crisis that needs urgent attentio
 n. Worldwide\, 250 million children - many of them from disadvantaged back

 ality for all describes how policy-makers can support and sustain a qualit
 y education system for all children\, regardless of background\, by provid

 ped by an independent team and published by UNESCO.\n\nThe seminar will ou
 tline the purposes of the Education for All Global Monitoring Report and p
