The right of all children to a quality education, regardless of disability, is to be the driving force for this year’s Young Ambassadors.

The right of all children to a quality education, regardless of disability, is to be the driving force for this year’s Young Ambassadors.

The Young Ambassadors scheme is run by Send My Friend to School, part of the Global Campaign for Education (GCE) which seeks to hold governments to account for the Millennium pledge of an education for all by 2015.

The GCE is now active in 100 countries worldwide but currently there are still 57 million children worldwide who do not receive a primary education.

Each year in the UK, two Young Ambassadors are named to help promote the campaign across the country. As part of their work, they will also travel abroad to investigate some of the barriers to education that children can face.
