Advancing Millennium Development Goal #2

The Millennium Development Goal #2 is to Achieve Universal Primary Education. The first target, to "ensure that by 2015 children everywhere - boys and girls alike - will be able to complete a full course of primary schooling", is both ambitious and needed.

Education provides the opportunity to prevent poverty, to create wealth, and lift all economies. In our interconnected world, a rising tide does indeed lift all boats.

From policy and advocacy to actual teaching, the ways to become involved are numerous - and the smallest investments reap multiple rewards.

What are your favorite ways to advance education? We would love to hear from you!
