ECW Case for Investment 2016

The Education Cannot Wait (ECW) 2016 Case for Investment calls on governments, private sector companies, philanthropic foundations and global leaders to support the launch of the new ECW fund to bridge the education funding gap preventing 75 million children worldwide from safely attending school and continuing their education. Built through integrated partnerships and coalitions, ECW's catalytic investments work toward meeting Sustainable Development Goal 4, with the fund embracing one of its core principles: “to leave no one behind and to begin with those farthest behind.” This call to action includes an executive summary, the impact of crises on education, our vision, the solution and the urgency of acting now.
