Season's greetings to our Education International family!

published 18 December 2024 updated 20 December 2024

As we reflect on the year, we celebrate the dedication and hard work of our member organizations. They have been relentless in their commitment to improve the living and working conditions of teachers and education support personnel globally.

It has not been an easy year. We witnessed a rise in authoritarianism, climate disasters, and devastating wars. But our solidarity never wavered, we stood up to tyrants, persisted through disasters, and continued to make education a beacon of hope in the face of war.

We are a union family, bound together by solidarity.

At Education International, we all want to wish you a festive season, and peace and hope for the new year ahead.

"As we come to the end of a difficult year, I would like to thank all teachers and education workers around the world. Thank you for your wisdom and dedication, for your solidarity and determination to make lives and communities better through education. It is my honour to stand with you for progress and human rights, for peace and planet, for free quality education for all. I wish you a very Happy New Year with dignity and justice for all."

- Mugwena Maluleke, President, Education International
