On this International Day of Education, I'm reflecting on the unwavering dedication of educators worldwide who not only teach but also protect and support their students daily. I look forward to continued collaboration with @eduint to champion and uplift educators everywhere.

This International Day of Education, @eduint has released the Global Status of Teachers report. Using data from 204 unions in 121 countries, the report highlights challenges faced by educators worldwide and the way forward. ei-ie.org/en/item/29415:… #EducationDay
