“Quality education plays a fundamental role in addressing insecurity by tackling its root causes such as poverty, unemployment, and ignorance. It empowers individuals with the knowledge, skills, and values needed to promote critical thinking, tolerance, and responsible citizenship.

Furthermore, quality education fosters social inclusion, expands economic opportunities, and strengthens institutions-all of which are essential to building long-term peace and security.”
