Urgent call for @EUCouncil!

Attempts to weaken the #DueDiligence Directive's human rights provisions are a step backwards and undermine the EU's claim to uphold human rights.

Today, we call on Member States to strengthen, not weaken, this Directive: https://t.co/WnWKymuhyC

Today we are celebrating the International Day of Education! #Education is a human right, which is why the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed 24 January as International Education Day in 2018. In 2024, it will therefore take place on 24 January.

This day of action, which was first celebrated in 2019, aims to recognise the role of education for #peace and development and as a public good.
#Equality is not possible as long as there is no equal opportunity for lifelong, high-quality education.
