They are like candles that consume itself to light the way for others.

In this crisis, they have shown, as they have done so often, great leadership and innovation in ensuring that #LearningNeverStops, that no learner is left behind. Around the world, they have worked individually and collectively to find solutions and create new learning environments for their students to allow education to continue”, part of the statement read.
