Leaders from around the world will come together in Geneva, Switzerland, to make good on commitments to ensure every child, everywhere, is offered a quality education. The Conference seeks to mobilize resources from donors, foundations, and high-net-worth individuals to deliver on Education Cannot Wait’s (ECW) four-year strategic plan, which will mobilize USD 1.5 billion in additional resources to reach 20 million children and adolescents caught in some of the world’s worst humanitarian crises.

The Conference is co-hosted by Switzerland and ECW, in close collaboration with the Governments of Colombia, Germany, Niger, Norway, and South Sudan, and will be live streamed to the public online.

ECW is a multi-donor trust fund created by international humanitarian and development actors at the World Humanitarian Summit in 2016. It is hosted by the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
