Nigerian Youth Emphasize Co-Creation of Inclusive Education System

The Nigerian education system faces challenges in providing quality education at all levels, with issues such as inadequate infrastructure, lack of skilled teachers, and overcrowded classrooms. The United Nations advocates for youth involvement in co-creating a modern and inclusive education system to drive innovation and social change.

The government's recent declaration of a moratorium on establishing new higher education institutions highlights the existing deficiencies in the sector. The theme of the year underscores the need for a holistic approach to education beyond traditional classroom learning.
