📋 Fewer reported attacks ≠ safer education. ⚠️ Funding cuts, media blackouts & access limits are creating “blind spots” 📉 Less reporting → less accountability. Invest in monitoring. Protect the truth. 📄 eua2026.protectingeducation.org #EducationUnderAttack

Attacks on education keep rising — often unpunished due to legal gaps & lack of child-sensitive investigations. Panelists called for: 🔹 Stronger domestic laws 🔹 Effective prosecution of military use of schools 🔹 Restorative & survivor-centred justice #SafeSchoolsDeclaration #EducationUnderAttack
