Children who are excluded from education often face multiple and overlapping disadvantages. Data produced by the Global Initiative on Out-of-School Children give us a clearer picture of why they are out of school. 

Choose from the list of participating countries to see what is holding these children back.

The Global Initiative on Out-of-School Children, a partnership between the UNESCO Institute for Statistics and UNICEF, aims to make sustainable reductions in the number of children who are out of school.

L’Initiative mondiale en faveur des enfants non Scolarisés, lancée par l’Institut de statistique de l’UNESCO et l’UNICEF, a pour but de réduire le nombre d’enfants non scolarisés.

La Iniciativa mundial sobre niños que no asisten a la escuela, una colaboración entre el Instituto de Estadística de la UNESCO y UNICEF, tiene como objetivo de lograr una reducción del número de niños que no asisten a la escuela.

Sources include household survey and administrative data produced for the Global Initiative on Out-of-School Children. Due to rounding, totals may not equal 100%.
