NEW YORK, USA, 26 September 2008 This week at the United Nations General Assembly session, a group of government and private-sector partners were making a pledge of $4.5 billion to help educate some 15 million children worldwide over the next three years. The partners are participants in the Education for All: Class of 2015 campaign. The pledge came from corporations such as Intel, Microsoft and Cisco, civic and sports associations such as FIFA, charities, faith groups and the Governments of Australia, France, Norway, Spain, Saudi Arabia, the European Union and the United Kingdom. At the UN Millennium Summit in 2000, world leaders pledged to ensure universal primary education by 2015. But eight years later, the world as a whole is not on track to achieve this Millennium Development Goal. Among the remaining challenges: Some 75 million children are still not enrolled in primary school; over a third of students who are enrolled drop out before completing their primary education; and there is a global shortage of teachers. In this video, Devli Kumar, 11, from India, describes her journey from long days spent as a child labourer in a stone quarry to days spent at school.

Devli told her story yesterday to a rapt audience that included UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Her Majesty Queen Rania of Jordan, UNICEF Executive Director Ann M. Veneman, pop stars Bono and Bob Geldof, and other dignitaries attending the high-level event. Schools dont just build lives, they save lives, said Queen Rania. Our deadline of 2015 is feasible. It is also indispensable and also non-negotiable. It is a test we cannot afford to fail. To read the full story, visit: http://www.unicef.org/girlseducation/index_45763.html
