We can all promote diversity in school

I would love to [...] live in a world where schools are full of diversity.

- Caridad

Caridad believes that improving quality means promoting diverse classrooms. Underrepresented and vulnerable groups deserve attention and should access high level study programmes too.

What the EU is doing

The European Education Area (EEA) is working towards the removal of barriers to learning to grant quality education for all.

 

Building a protected learning environment

Make an environment where everyone feels safe.

- Caridad

As Caridad points out, safeguarding students' well-being is crucial during their time in school.

What the EU is doing

A protected environment is a top priority in the European Education Area. Only through a sound and welcoming learning space, can students flourish and enjoy their journey to a fulfilling life.

 

Education: a lifelong experience

When I talk about education, I also talk about adult education.

- Caridad

Caridad highlights the lifelong perspective of learning.

What the EU is doing

The European Education Area encourages adult education to boost employment prospects, personal growth, and skill development. This allows people to update their knowledge and competences to better participate in community life.
