Unlocking the power of parliamentarians to leverage more and better financing for education

As part of the Global Education Summit: Financing GPE 2021 - 20225, in a conversation moderated by IPNEd’s Executive Director, Joseph Nhan-O’Reilly, two distinguished parliamentarians both of whom are active supporters of education, reflect on the role they and their peers can play in securing more and better financing for education.

They share their reflections on the issues that drove their engagement in politics and shaped their commitment to education as well as the importance of cross-committee and cross-party cooperation to secure greater resources for education.
