Em 1994, a UNESCO instituiu o dia 5 de Outubro como Dia Mundial do Professor para destacar o trabalho dos educadores.

O ensino primário universal era um dos compromissos para os Objectivos de Desenvolvimento do Milénio, definidos há 15 anos. Nessa altura, mais de 100 milhões de crianças em todo o mundo não frequentavam a escola primária. Actualmente, e de acordo com as Nações Unidas, este número reduziu para 57 milhões. No entanto, o Banco Mundial divulgou em Maio que os níveis de iliteracia continuam altos apesar desta evolução.

Ontem, o Jornal Público divulgou, no Dia Mundial do Professor, uma viagem pelo mundo das salas de aula, do Paquistão ao Reino Unido, passando pelo Brasil ou pela Faixa de Gaza.

Nearly three years after Taliban gunmen shot Pakistani schoolgirl Malala Yousafzai, the teenage activist last week urged world leaders gathered in New York to help millions more children go to school. World Teachers' Day falls on 5 October, a Unesco initiative highlighting the work of educators struggling to teach children amid intimidation in Pakistan, conflict in Syria or poverty in Vietnam. Even so, there have been some improvements: the number of children not attending primary school has plummeted to an estimated 57 million worldwide in 2015, the U.N. says, down from 100 million 15 years ago. Reuters photographers have documented learning around the world, from well-resourced schools to pupils crammed into corridors in the Philippines, on boats in Brazil or in crowded classrooms in Burundi.
