As the United Nations prepares to celebrate its 80th anniversary in 2025, young voices like Dinora Abdullaeva from Uzbekistan are amplifying calls for transformative action in global education. The "One Home: Shared Future" initiative, a collaboration between CGTN and global creators, has become a platform for youth to outline their vision for progress.
Abdullaeva, a student advocating for equitable learning opportunities, highlights persistent gaps in access to quality education despite decades of UN-led efforts. "Digital tools can bridge divides," she argues, urging increased investment in tech-driven solutions to empower marginalized communities. Her message resonates with Asia's rapidly digitizing economies, where uneven internet access and outdated curricula remain barriers.
The proposal aligns with growing demands from developing nations seeking to future-proof their workforce. As artificial intelligence reshapes industries, Abdullaeva emphasizes that "youth must lead the conversation" about educational reform. Her advocacy underscores the UN's evolving role in fostering intergenerational partnerships to achieve Sustainable Development Goals.
