e-Learning for Strengthening Higher Education in Ethiopia (e-SHE)’s Post

When we founded #Kitabistan in 2016, one of our biggest goals was to emphasize the importance of education and present succesful education models of the world to Azerbaijani public. That's why the first book we published was "Finland: Country of White Lilies" which shows how education change the society in a better ways. Education has always been at the forefront of our subsequent activities - discussions, events, conferences, interviews, translated and published books, and researches. Because education is everyone's right and society without education is doomed to destruction. Today is International Day of Education. In 2018, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution declaring January 24 as International Education Day. Here, the main goal is to emphasize the importance of education in building a healthy society. As Kitabistan, we also regulate our activities in accordance with SDG 4 and will continue our work in this field. #sdg4 #ungoals #sdg #qualityeducation #education
