Education Emergency

    Pakistan is suffering an education emergency, with at least 25 million children denied their constitutional right to an education.

    Few of those children who do go to school receive the quality education they need to prosper in the modern world. The economic impact of the emergency is catastrophic – billions of rupees a year – while the human cost is much greater.

    Let’s join together to force Pakistan’s leaders to finally get serious about providing every child with a decent school and a committed teacher. Sign our petition to make ending the education emergency the country’s no 1 priority.

    3 Reasons for signing this petition

    • Because the cost of not educating Pakistan is the equivalent of one flood per year.
    • Because we have the money. 26 countries are poorer than Pakistan but are able to send more children to school.
    • Because a country cannot thrive in the modern world without educating its children. It is a fundamental right under our constitution.

    To Pakistan’s Prime Minister and Chief Ministers

    We call on you to make education your number one priority in 2011 – the Year of Education – and to set out plans for giving every child their constitutional right to education. At a time of fiscal crisis, we ask you protect education budgets and to explain how, and when, they can be increased to at least 4% of GDP.
