Did you know that approximately 774 million people in the world are illiterate and uneducated (Source)? As Nelson Mandela stated wisely “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” It’s a true saying; education will give you freedom. The fact that some children in developing countries aren’t being educated is breaking the UN Declaration of Rights. Article 26 states that everyone has the right to education, but that is not happening in certain countries. Education is an essential because with education, you will be capable of getting a stable career independently with your wisdom and knowledge. Being educated is valuable in the society and no one can deceive you. Especially in countries like Bangladesh and India where people are struggling through poverty and child labour. If these people and their kids were able to be educated, then they wouldn't have to struggle nor would they have to remain in their countries. They could leave their country in order to get better opportunities and have an ideal future elsewhere. Free the Children strives to help educate this shocking amount of uneducated people.
