Global Gateway: High-Level Event on Education

11 April

Co-hosted by the European Commission and the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the EU, the Global Gateway High-Level Education Event, which will take place on 11 April 2024 in Brussels, aims to highlight EU’s role in transforming global education and bridging skills gaps.

The Transforming Education Summit (TES) that took place in September 2022 in New York, called for accelerating progress of education and training systems to make them fit for the future. The EU responded with dedication by taking leadership at the Summit, committing at least 10% of its international partnerships budget to education, and prioritising education and research under the Global Gateway Strategy. This strategy focuses on addressing global challenges in line with SDGs by fostering smart, clean, and secure connections across the digital, transport, energy and climate-relevant, as well as health and education sectors.

Two years later, the Global Gateway High-Level Education Event will mark an important milestone for the EU and its partners towards the 2024 Summit of the Future and the 2025 World Social Summit underlining the importance of education as a catalytic investment for the future.

Thematic sessions will cover urgent issues such as improving teaching quality, financing, equity, inclusion, innovation, and green and digital skills. Together with top leaders from politics, the education sector, and business, we will present and discuss success stories and consider future opportunities to ensure progress at scale. We will explore existing commitments and how to boost sustainable investments that deliver more for young people and ensure that succeeding generations are well-prepared for the challenges ahead.
