International Day to Protect Education from Attack 2026

The International Day to Protect Education from Attack is observed on September 09, 2026, by the United Nations to promote safe learning environments. Celebrated annually, it was proclaimed in 2020 to raise awareness of attacks on education, especially in conflict zones. Education is vital for breaking cycles of poverty and violence, and schools should be protected spaces for children and teachers.

International Day to Protect Education from Attack emphasizes the need for global action to uphold international laws and safeguard schools from violence. It also advocates for rebuilding damaged education systems and providing resources for quality education in affected regions.
