This "new social contract" has a strong focus on the role of the Public Sector, and the commitments Heads of States and Ministers will take to address and tackle said crisis. This Summit isn't only about the Declaration, and the commitments, countries will sign, but it will also be a starting point to build a global movement for education, something we have seen with climate change but not with education.
