Education is one of the precursors of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in and of itself; quality education leads to significant sustainable development benefits for individuals, communities, and countries. We, Universiti Malaya, believe that education is a critical means of supporting and accelerating glocal (global and local) capacity to implement the SDGs.
SDG4 Quality Education is a call to action to provide 'inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all'.
