ABOUT
The Goal
The Goal of the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Global Education is to raise awareness of factors affecting education in low- and middle-income countries among UK parliamentarians as well as the Government’s obligations to help achieve Sustainable Development Goal 4, Quality Education.
Since the Annual General Meeting of February 2022, we have had eight office-holding members, with a broader pool of over 65 parliamentarians who remain interested and engaged with our work.
We do this by
- Undertaking bilateral site visits to countries where the UK Government supports the provision of education
- Hosting events in the House of Commons and the House of Lords to raise the profile of education issues among UK parliamentarians
- Working with civil society and academia to disseminate current policy advice and expertise to parliamentary colleagues
- Producing policy documents and briefings
- Engaging with the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) to make recommendations and suggestions
- Working closely with the Send My Friend to School Campaign
