According to a UNESCO report, approximately 250 million children globally are not attending school, representing 16% of the school-age population. This situation is particularly dire in conflict-affected regions.
The study highlights that areas impacted by conflict have significantly higher rates of children out of school, raising concerns about the long-term effects on education and development.
The findings underscore the urgent need for targeted educational support and interventions in these regions to ensure that children have access to learning opportunities.
