About 63 million adolescents and 58 million children of primary school age are excluded from education. The Out-of-School Children Initiative, a partnership between UNICEF and the UIS, calls for a cost-effective and pro-equity approach to financing education. The animated infographic explains the need for better data. It also emphasizes the importance of general and targeted spending on initiatives that have proven effective in overcoming the most common barriers that exclude children from attending school and learning.
