STATEMENT FROM NATIONAL EDUCATION COMMISSION OF ECM ON ATTACKS ON RIGHT TO EDUCATION IN NORTHERN NIGERIA

As part of the Global Faiths Coalition for Education (GFC Education), the National Education Commission of the Episcopal Conference of Malawi condemns the attack on girls’ education in northern Nigeria. We believe that education is a fundamental right, and pledge to support efforts to end injustices against children, including forced marriage and discrimination against girls. We pledge to work collaboratively with the faiths community, governments, and NGOs to achieve education for all.
