The world promised education for all — but in 2025, millions of children are still being left behind.

Underfunded schools, missing teachers, and unequal access to technology are holding kids back, especially girls, refugees, and children with disabilities.

That’s why Global Citizen and FIFA launched the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, aiming to raise $100 million to support education and sport programs in over 200 countries.

This year, the 2025 Global Citizen Festival campaign is pushing for at least $30 million in new funding — enough to help 30,000 children learn to read, write, and build a better future.
