A report from UNESCO summarizes the recent global information on 263 million children not in school. This number represents 1/5 of the global population eligible to attend primary and secondary schools settings of any kind. In addition, there are more than 125 million young children who lack basic reading and writing skills. Furthermore, it is estimated that at least 60 million children are refugees and/or “on the run” from oppression and other traumatizing issues. Their chances for success in life are less likely than their educated peers and their risk of undesirable conditions is likely to be greater.

We, as ambassadors for WEF-USA and the World Education Forum (Global), have our work cut out for us. It is also clear that collaborations among and between world educators, associations, policy makers and learning communities can and will make a difference in bridging this global, national, and humanistic divide! Together we can share challenges and successful strategies as we bring this relatively unknown issue to the forefront of our conversations and subsequent actions.We believe that each country should be assuring that all children are educated. Each child has a right to a quality education so they can become who they are meant to be. We never know which children will grow up

Digital Competence and Multilingualism have been acknowledged as key skills for the 21st century by EU. Digital Literacy was included as one of the eight essential skills, in the Recommendation on Key Competences for Lifelong learning. In the EC’s 2010 Digital Agenda for Europe, Digital Literacy is one of its seven pillars. However, most Language Teachers lack sufficient Digital Competences and they cannot use all available digital tools to advance their teaching practices and their professional development. Furthermore, they detain their students’ digital skills since they avoid using new innovative digital tools in their teaching practice. Organizations delivering language training often lack the knowledge of deployment and the sustainable use of information and communications technology (ICT), even if their staff obtains the right digital competences. All these result in not being able to fulfill National and EU educational policy goals regarding digital education.
