Achieving the Global Goal for education by 2030 costs on average $1.18 a day per child in developing countries. Estimates say that developing country governments can cover $1.04 of this amount, leaving a 14 cent funding gap. It might seem like a small amount, but those last 14 cents can make a huge difference.

Imagine the challenges we could begin to address by closing the funding gap:

• Developing countries could provide 12 years of school for all children, free of charge
• More teachers could be hired and trained
• Schools could be equipped and resourced to welcome children with disabilities
• More schools could be built in remote  areas, meaning more children would go to school
