🏫 AANAPISIs Week 2024 recognizes the significant role that AANAPISIs play in educating the AAPI student communities. While there are few institutions across the U.S. higher education landscape, they serve nearly half of all AANAPI undergraduate students. As a reminder, eligible AANAPISIs have at least 10% of their population identify as AAPI students, and at least half of their degree-seeking students qualify for need-based aid assistance. With this in mind, ensuring eligible institutions greater access to this funding program is critical for all AAPI students. Yesterday, the University of Houston dedicated the day to celebrating its status as an AANAPISI through events that shared the importance and impact of the designation. As their celebration webpage notes, “The University of Houston was designated as an AANAPISI in 2016-2017. The University of Houston (UH) currently enrolls approximately 46,700 students who form a highly diverse student population (33.2% Hispanic, 22% Asian-American, 20% Caucasian, 10.9% African-American,9.4% International, 2.9% Multiracial, 0.1% Native American and 0.1% Hawaiian/Pacific Islander), many of whom are First Generation in College. As a federally designated Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institution, UH recognizes its opportunity and responsibility to train at the highest level possible for the next generation of the workforce.” As a part of its boilerplate language, UH is "proudly designated" as a Hispanic-serving Institution (HSI) AND an AANAPISI, proving that institutions champion diversity across multiple groups! #aanapisis #aanapisiweek #apahenational #gocoogs

#JAMB Addressing the Crisis: JAMB's Mass Failure Reflects Deep Educational and Cultural Issues in Nigeria The recent mass failure in the 2024 JAMB results is a stark indicator of deeper cultural and systemic issues within our Nigerian education system. As a University Lecturer in Media and Communication, and a staunch advocate for educational integrity, I am compelled to address not only the direct impacts of social media and entertainment on student focus and diligence but also the alarming role of parental responsibility in this equation. A significant factor contributing to the dismal performance in these exams is the diminishing reading culture among students, exacerbated by an excessive indulgence in social media and entertainment platforms. This shift away from academic pursuits towards instant gratification and leisure activities undermines the rigorous discipline required for academic success. Furthermore, the pervasive influence of 'Yahoo Yahoo', as a subculture among some Nigerian youths, poses a severe challenge. It not only detracts from their academic goals but also entangles them in unethical practices. Equally concerning is the role of some parents in this scenario. There's a growing trend where parental responsibility is waning, with some parents not only failing to discourage these distractions but, distressingly, also tacitly encouraging or turning a blind eye to academic dishonesty and malpractices. This not only undermines the educational values but also contributes to a culture where academic achievements are undervalued. As educators and guardians of the next generation’s potential, we must instill a sense of integrity and the value of hard work in our students. We must also campaign for a shift in parental attitudes, where education is seen not merely as a hurdle to be circumvented but as a fundamental building block for future success. This mass failure should serve as a wake-up call for all stakeholders in Nigerian education. It is imperative to cultivate a culture that values education and integrity over quick gains. By doing so, we can hope to foster an environment where learning is cherished and educational achievements are celebrated for their genuine merit. #EducationReform #JAMB2024 #NigerianEducation #ParentalResponsibility #AcademicIntegrity JOINT ADMISSIONS AND MATRICULATION BOARD Oyo State Ministry of Education oysg Federal Ministry Of Education, Nigeria Bowen University Iwo

Months ago, at a Devex sponsored education event on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA 78), the executive governor of Kwara State, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq said “investing in education is the urgency of now”. This closely resonates with the second part of the 2024's theme for Day of the African Child – “the time is now”, and this belief has been the main driver of the many reforms carried out in the Education Sector. African Union (AU) placed a huge importance on education making this year’s grand theme - “Educate an African fit for the 21st Century”. While advocating for the African child to be knowledgeable as technology evolves and advances, this emphasises the importance of ensuring that children's rights are protected in the rapidly evolving digital world. It calls for action to address issues such as online safety, digital literacy, and equitable access to technology. On June 16 2024, another “Day of the African Child” was celebrated and the theme was “Education for All, The Time Is Now”. KwaraLEARN is well positioned to push this agenda forward by ensuring Kwara State children have access to quality education through the programme’s full implementation in public primary schools across all sixteen Local Government Areas of the state. KwaraLEARN easily aligns with all the themes highlighted and continues to provide basic education, digitally, for all Kwarans. #DayOfTheAfricanChild #DigitalChildRights #EducationForAll

International Day of Education! Education has the power to transform lives, communities, and even entire nations. It is a tool of empowerment, offering opportunity and hope to those who may otherwise be left behind. On this International Day of Education, let us reflect on how we can harness the power of education to create lasting peace and a more just world in line with this year's theme: learning for lasting peace.. As we know, education is an important tool for human capital development, especially in developing countries. It can provide young people with the skills and knowledge they need to participate in the labor market and contribute to economic growth. It can also empower individuals and communities to break the cycle of poverty, creating a virtuous cycle of growth and prosperity. For example, in countries like India and China, investment in education has been a key driver of economic growth and poverty reduction. In fact, the World Bank estimates that a one percent increase in the average years of schooling in a country can lead to an increase in per capita income of up to 1.2 percent. This highlights the tremendous potential of education to transform lives and improve living standards. With our work at Utidia and the Utidia Apprenticeship Institute (UAI) which are focused on workforce development within the YouthUp Global network, we have been providing individuals with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in the workforce, with a particular focus on developing countries; which includes providing access to practical-based training and resources, promoting work-based learning opportunities, and connecting individuals with employers....we are committed to improving quality education in developing countries. I believe that education should be for all and should receive every form of support and funding... building and empowering for a lasting peace. Do something every day to support education! On behalf of my entire community I wish us all a happy International Day of Education. #FaithNwaobia #youthup #utidia #uai #internationaldayofeducation

As advocates for improving education for all, in the UK and globally, SEND International celebrates the work done by Global Partnership for Education. With strong relationships and developing partnerships with other determined individuals and organisations, the dream of a truly inclusive education system for all children, wherever in the world they live, becomes a little bit closer… Their 2023 annual report is available in the link below. In 2023 GPE leveraged partnerships and funding to support the efforts of 90 partner countries to transform their education systems and help every child get an education fit for the 21st century. Some of the 2023 highlights include: 4 new countries became GPE partners: Belize, Egypt and Sri Lanka. 84 partner countries accessed $2.5 billion in active grants for education system reforms that address their priorities, training 481,000 teachers, building 6,664 new classrooms and distributing 48 million textbooks. GPE nearly doubled the value of new grants approved to $795 million, mobilizing an additional $1.2 billion in co-financing from partners. 33 partnership compacts were finalized, paving the way for countries to mobilize partnerships and funding around priority reforms with the greatest potential to improve education outcomes. https://lnkd.in/eE4dswnd
