The 2026 International Day of Education highlights a powerful truth: young people are no longer just recipients of education, they are active partners in shaping it. With youth making up more than half of the world’s population, their ideas, creativity, and lived experiences are essential to building inclusive, relevant, and future-ready learning systems.
The theme calls for meaningful youth participation in educational policies, curricula, and innovation, especially at a time when technology and global change are transforming how we learn. By involving young people in designing education systems, societies can create learning environments that truly reflect their aspirations and prepare them for sustainable development and social transformation.
Ultimately, the message is clear: when youth co-create education, they don’t just shape classrooms, they shape the future.
