Since our formation in 1999, millions of people and thousands of organizations in over 100 countries have united to demanding Education for All.\u00a0 <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Civil society organizations, trade unions, child rights campaigners, teachers, parents and students have joined together to demand universal education.<\/p>\n<p>GCE was a united civil society voice in the World Education Forum in Dakar 2000 and setting the Education for All agenda for 2015.\u00a0 Since this meeting 40 million more children have been able to go to school, and a financing mechanism (Education Fast Track Initiative) has been established to help meet the education goals.\u00a0\u00a0 Yet the fact remains that quality education for all is still far from reality, and close to a million people right now are being denied their right to an education that would change their lives.<\/p>\n<p>GCE campaigns throughout the year, rallying a joint global cry for education, mobilising pressure from all sectors and holding governments and international institutions to account.\u00a0 Here are some of the sections of our work:<\/p>\n<p>GLOBAL ACTION WEEK<\/p>\n<p>GCE coordinates the Global Action Week on education in April every year.\u00a0 GCE&rsquo;s Action Week is a much anticipated date in the international calendar.\u00a0 Activities to date include &#8211; the \u2018World&rsquo;s Biggest Lobby&rsquo; and \u2018Send My Friend to School&rsquo;.\u00a0 In 2008 close to nine million people took part in the World&rsquo;s Biggest Lesson including national leaders and celebrities such as Shakira.\u00a0 Find out more about GCE&rsquo;s Action Week and how you can get involved.<\/p>\n<p>YEAR ROUND CAMPAIGNING<\/p>\n<p>GCE represents civil society on education at key education decision making bodies including the Education Fast Track Initiative Steering Committee, the Education for All UNESCO led Working Group and High Level Group.\u00a0 We also coordinate national campaigns to lobby the annual G8 and World Bank and IMF meetings in demand of long-term good financing for education.\u00a0 Read our calendar of events.<\/p>\n<p>EDUCATION FOR ALL: CLASS OF 2015<\/p>\n<p>In 2008 we helped launch the Education for All: Class of 2015 at the UN high level meeting on the Millennium Development Goals on the 25th September 2008.\u00a0 This class is a unique coming together of governments, faith leaders, corporations, civil society and education advocates who are committed to making sure that the Education for All goals become a reality by 2015.\u00a0 Find out more about the Class of 2015 here.<\/p>\n<p>GLOBAL ADVOCACY: &#8230;
