International Day to Protect Education from Attack

International Day to Protect Education from Attack takes place on 9th September each year. This day is dedicated to raising awareness of the importance of safeguarding schools, students, and educators in conflict zones. The day aims to highlight the impact of violence on education and advocate for the protection of educational institutions during armed conflict, ensuring that students can learn in a safe environment.

Education is a fundamental human right, yet in many parts of the world, this right is under threat due to armed conflicts. Schools are often targeted in these conflicts, leading to the destruction of educational facilities and the displacement of students and teachers. This day calls for global action to ensure that education is protected from attacks, as these attacks not only harm the immediate victims but also have long-term effects on societies and their development.
