Global Campaign for Education: Advocating for continued involvement of The Netherlands in education worldwide
Overview
More children in developing countries, including girls, follow basic education. However, 69 million children are still out of school. The Global Campaign for Education (GCE) in the Netherlands managed to keep education high on the agenda in a year with major education budget cuts in the Dutch development budget. The Campaign used its International network and a creative media and networking approach to convince MPs and indirectly the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the importance of a responsible phasing out strategy for education programmes in former Dutch partner countries.
