Statement from Minister Hussen on International Day of Education
Ottawa, ON – January 24, 2025 – The Honourable Ahmed Hussen, Minister of Housing and Diversity and Inclusion, today issued the following statement on the International Day of Education:
“Today, we celebrate the International Day of Education, a day to recognize the importance of education in building a more just and equitable world.
Education is a fundamental human right. It empowers individuals to unlock their full potential, contribute to their communities, and drive social and economic progress. When everyone has access to quality education, it creates a ripple effect that benefits society as a whole.
This year’s theme for the International Day of Education is “Invest in People, Prioritize Education.” This theme highlights the critical need to increase investment in education at all levels, from early childhood to post-secondary.
In Canada, we are committed to providing every child and youth with access to a quality education. Our government is investing in programs that support early childhood education, improve K-12 learning outcomes, and make post-secondary education more affordable.
We are also working to ensure that all Canadians have the opportunity to learn and grow throughout their lives. We are expanding access to adult education programs and supporting lifelong learning opportunities.
Investing in education is an investment in our future. It is essential for building a more prosperous, inclusive, and sustainable Canada.
On this International Day of Education, let us recommit to providing every individual with the opportunity to reach their full potential through the power of education.”
