International Day of Education 2025: Observed annually on January 24, the International Day of Education celebrates the transformative power of education in fostering peace, development, and human rights. Proclaimed by the United Nations in 2018, the day calls for global efforts to ensure inclusive and equitable education for all. The 2025 theme, “AI and Education: Preserving Human Agency in a World of Automation,” highlights the importance of balancing technology with human creativity and decision-making as artificial intelligence reshapes the world.
The day also serves as a reminder of education’s role in addressing global challenges. Nelson Mandela famously said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” As nations come together to bridge educational gaps, the International Day of Education emphasizes the need to empower individuals through high-quality learning opportunities.
